What he did was horrendous, I'm simply against the state executing people.
There’s a series on Netflix called Exhibit A where they cover some “solid” forensics methods that are dodgy at best. For years NYC used sort of a predictive DNA report to incriminate people when the DNA wasn’t an exact match. And it was used against hundreds of people.So you have sex with your wife then go to work, hour after you leave she's murdered. Sorry about your bad luck Orange, they found DNA.
Who GAF. You kill someone you get killed.Nah, not really. I don't think there's ever been a clear demonstration that the death penalty has a deterrent effect.

Lol, you just picked the worst example ever. If you're at work you have an alibi. And again, it isn't the 50s, your cell phone would have you in a different location, your home security cameras would show someone that isn't you. It's 2019.So you have sex with your wife then go to work, hour after you leave she's murdered. Sorry about your bad luck Orange, they found DNA.

If you go to prison for embezzlement you lose your money so this happens. You go to prison for rape you're probably going to get raped. The only example of not happening is being robbed in prison although I'm sure clothes, money and cigarettes disappear all the time.Modern punishment doesn't work on the theory of doing the same thing to the perpetrator that was done to the victim. So why do we do it for murder?

Because imo in most instances that is an unforgivable offense. There is no rehabilitation or deterrent for some evil and lawlessness. I don’t think I would call the death penalty is as much a deterrent as it is justice for the victim and their loved ones. A life can’t be replaced.
If you are going to base punishments on how well they deter crime then why stop at getting rid of the death penalty? Life in prison or even prison sentences arent working so I guess under that line of thought we shouldn't have any laws.Nah, not really.

But now you're just begging the question. I'm asking why it's justice when we have few, if any, other examples of state punishment that inflicts upon the perpetrator what he inflicted upon the victim.
