Morally I am not exaclty certain if the death penalty is right, as sited by the points raised here.

However from a logical view I would have to say NO. Our legal system is so fucked up that those who werent wealthy enough would be getting the chair while clebrites and such would get off scott free because of a legal loophole.

And MR Batty we have the same problem with early release. Funny enough a murderer sentenced to 20 years will probably do about 8 years. While someone convicted of a drug related crime gets no chance of early release. There is no JUSTICE in our LEGAL systems.
