Execution Debate (Monica)


          I do think that the death penalty prevents more crimes because the death penalty is a crime itself, its killing someone and killing someone is a crime. I do think the victim’s family should have the decision to choose the death penalty for someone. If the victim tells me that he wants to die because he feels bad for what he did then I would choose the death penalty for them. I don’t think the warden should be the one to pull the switch because they’ll probably feel bad after they kill the criminal, I think the criminal or a family member of the criminal should be the ones who choose the person who pulls the switch. Not the jail. I feel like the death penalty causes more problems in life, for example what if they catch the wrong criminal and they choose the death penalty for him or her and than later on the actual killer confesses what are they going to do then, kill that guy too? I just think they should be treated badly and that they should have life in jail with no visitor’s people like killers don’t deserve to have visitors or even have the right to interact with other people. But I also think it all depends on how bad the crime is. Perry and Dick deserve what they got because of how bad the crime was.
