Against.
What Rhythm said. Also, even if we had a way to assure we had guilty people, the death penalty is not a good option.
It does not deter crime.
It does not cost less than life in prison.
It is NOT humane.

Also, there is much to be learned from people who commit heinous crimes, and you can't learn much from dead people.
