So locking an innocent guy up the rest of his life is such a better fate than killing the occasional innocent man. The system isn't perfect, and there will always be the .00000001% who is found guilt when they are not and put on death row. I think with DNA evidence though, it's becoming less and less likely that a death row inmate is really innocent.
Fact is we can't build our judicial system around the small percent that is innocent but proven guilty. Those are issues in our court systems, judges, and district attorneys, not punishments.
