Probably not. But your question says a lot more about what you think, than my answer. Are you saying "So why worry about it if no one is gonna get hurt by this maniac every again? he's in for a lifetime, and thats that"

Maybe I am overthinking it.
(emphasis is mine)

You are. I've stated my objections to the death penalty, but I'll state them again. It's more expensive than life in prison (no, not because of the execution method) and it's not a deterrent to any crime for which it is applied.
