A downhill water slide is a slippery slope.

Having a minimum level of assurance that the wrong person doesn't get executed is a standard.

Hence if there is even the tiniest fraction of a doubt then the sentence is life in prison.

And I do mean life.

But there will ALWAYS be that 'tiniest fraction of a doubt'.  I agree that life should be life, though.

In some few cases there is absolutely no doubt about the guilt of an individual. The Christchurch shooter springs to mind.

And he does fall into my category of criminals who does qualify for the death penalty.

But, as I've stated a couple of times, if life in prison was to actually mean "life" and not out in 10 to 20 years, I'd be happy to change my stance.

And I know there's very little chance that the Chch shooter will ever get out of jail.
Dying to live, living to die.
