[Guy Profumo]

Every last one of them.


Worthless filth who've turned their backs on any concept of humanity.

They keep finding new ways to be the worst.

Mnuchin?

I imagine they'll execute a few non-whites in the week before the election.

[ursus arctos]

I'm sure that they would love to, but doubt that they will be able to given the inevitable legal challenges

[Satchmo Distel]

Is it true that due to legal fees, it's more expensive to execute someone than let them die in jail?

[ursus arctos]

It obviously depends on how long "life" ends up being, but yes, the state will generally spend more on everything involved with the execution than they would on incarcerating the prisoner for 40 years or more.

Did I miss the bit where the cost of any human life was a factor in any argument?

Or is that just me?

It’s not just you. The death penalty seems to be losing popularity, though it’s still popular in some places.

It shouldn't be a factor but there's a public misconception that the abolition of the death penalty in the UK led to huge new expense of keeping murderers locked up.
