It is of course always technically possible you kill an innocent person, but that is probably far less likely than getting murdered in prison at this point. The objections to it are largely hand wringing or some very committed pacifist principle.

Can you provide evidence to support your statements in your second paragraph ? I’ll wait
A consideration and a question for you
1. Does the death sentence act as deterrent to potential offenders ? (And yes obviously it does at an individual)
2. If it doesn’t then what would the reintroduction of the death penalty solve? Is it justice ? Or, is it as i believe more about vengeance
