In this present world, crime rates are constantly on the rise. The capital sentence is considered, by many, a murder by society. Instead, they think life in prison is better. I disagree with the idea of calling off the death penalty. And this is due to the fact that by punishing killers we send a strong message to anyone thinking of committing murder, as well as the unnecessity of filling prisons, which are run by public money, with killers that can’t be rehabilitated.
