Death Penalty

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

Actually, I've read that (in the US, at least) it costs quite a bit more to execute someone that to keep them locked up for life.

But suppose for the moment that you have NOT committed that terrible crime - you were deliberately framed, or the cops or witnesses made an honest mistake. Perhaps the jury was tainted, or the judge didn't like you looks. Wouldn't you, as an innocent man, prefer a system wherein significant time is built into an appeals process, to give you a chance to prove your innocence?

Boru

That is true. The steps taken to prove they are guilty need to be concrete and absolutely solid. If there is a shed or possibility of innocence they shouldn't even be on death row. I agree with that.

But you just that, if you were found guilty, you'd prefer to be executed with the week. Did I take you wrong (apos if I did)?
