I think that this sort of crime should garner a death penalty verdict. Do you really want any of these evil assholes back out in the community ANY TIME IN THE FUTURE? Of course not. So why house and feed and cloth their useless carcasses?

I would want them dead too, but death penalty actually ends up costing more in the end than even full life in prison, due to all the years of appeals, etc.

Death penalty. It needs to be changed so that they just execute them. They clearly proved guilt. That part is over.

Appeals are a contention that guilt was not proven. So you still have to deal with that.

Oh ok. My main concern is them avoiding their execution with countless costly appeals or something.

It is inevitable. We either allow criminals to abuse the system or abolish due process. Neither is desirable but one is worse than the other.

Yeah that's true. I've always agreed with that ideology and argued for it. But holy shit is it frustrating sometimes.
