Which is proven to be a moot argument, since capital cases cost the tax payer more than life imprisonment. There are a lot of moot arguments surrounding the death penalty. It doesn't deter crimes, it isn't cheaper and sometimes innocents are killed.
I guess that covers it.
So not even a net saving, and not only that but a net loss. Well, colour me mistaken, turns out it's even more retarded then I had assumed.
