I think 30 years of hard labor with no pay would be worse then death or some other things.

I'm for capital punishment, too, but only in cases where there can be no doubt. Juries are way too fallible. Wasn't it Illinois where DNA and such PROVED that more than half the men on death row were innocent? And what about the poor slobs in the other half where there was no DNA evidence? Probably half or more of them were innocent, too.
The death penalty simply doesn't work because our justice system doesn't work.
