Only if they can perfect the ability to know for sure (100%) via evidence that just can not be disputed. As it stands at least in the US, not all states that have the death penalty allow for DNA in an appeal and did not in the trial either (trial portion due to when it happened).
After we can make sure it is 100% accurate, it would then need to be applied equally. So statistically there would be no difference in charges and convictions of criminals by race, income level, or the level of their attorney (especially since many end up with public defenders who often put nothing into a defense).
Then of course the sentence should only apply to crimes where it makes sense. Not all murders for instance are created equal and it should be looked at carefully. Odds are someone who came home only to find the love of their life fucking getting pounded in the ass by their brother who snaps and kills one of them in a fit of rage should not really be put to death. The chance of such a crime happening again are slim to none and death for that individual would not really fit the crime.
Get that done and then the death penalty should be put to good use since I still am not super happy with the Government taking lives. So I feel all convicted inmates sentenced to death should be put down medically (yes this would be without any noticeable pain). The instant they are put down every usable organ, piece of flesh, ounce of blood, you name it would be harvested and put to use to help others.
