By punishing murderers with the death penalty, society is also guilty of committing murder. Therefore, life in prison is a better punishment for murderers. To what extend do you agree or disagree with this statement? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge.

It is generally said that the death penalty is a barbarian punishment even though the prisoner is a murderer or has performed serious assaults against other humans. Plenty of people argue that

in order to be more civilized we must seek better ways of reforming criminals while others claim that liberating society from those people is a better option. I personally feel that execution is one of the worst punishments,
this
essay will discuss my opinion and its social implications.
First
and foremost, lawbreakers with charges of killing must be punished for a long time, the worst fine for someone is a lifetime in confinement. While the death penalty is a useful manner of releasing society of offenders like murders or rapists, it is a short term punishment that would release him from any other type of sanction.
Furthermore
, the person injecting the lethal dose will become
also
a homicide and, if the prisoner turns out to be innocent after a
further
police investigation, family members of the suspect will present legal actions to the government. A more useful discipline, after ensuring his implication in the crime, would be a lifetime in prison but in confinement. Some will argue that
this
castigation is more inhumane because it has been proved that a human in complete isolation could become insane but, drawing from their charges it would not be a terrible sentence. Another situation to take into consideration is that

most assassins never change their behaviour and even in prison their presence is dangerous for the other inmates. There are different types of crimes and sometimes prisoners find redemption throughout their life behind bars, but
this
situation is only possible when the criminal performed a low standard crime.
For instance
, a penniless man who assaults a store to buy food for their family is likely to shortage his sentence and do not hurt anyone inside prison.
However
, in the case of people who perform the worst crimes, the possibility of redemption is almost inexistent. Reaffirming my position, I do not think that we must end their lives,
instead
, we must create worsts punishments so in the future other criminals think twice before committing
such
terrible actions. All things considered, killing someone else is a horrific action for every human. For
this
reason, I would argue that the death penalty must not be legal action in any country,
instead
, new forms of penalization should be implemented
accordingly
to the crime and with proper judgment in front of justice.
