Content: One can kill in one state and the punishment is a life sentence, while another person in another state has the death penalty hanging over their head for the same crime. Another variable that make capital punishment not certain is the court process. Some prosecutors won’t seek the death penalty, evidence is tainted or lost, or the jury has other options available to them when seeking punishment. The severity of capital punishment may or may not deter crime. For some, if they know they will be executed, how doesn’t really matter. However for others, certain types of executions are seen as inhumane. It’s funny how people, especially a convicted murderer, will mention how inhumane a particular type of execution is or that executions themselves or inhumane. What about the murder? Was that not inhumane? Well, some will say yes it was inhumane but the government shouldn’t be playing God and follow one inhumane crime with another (the execution).
