In the U.S. state of Arkansas for eleven days from 17 to 27 April - going execution of seven men sentenced to death. The reason for such haste is that at the end of the month expiration midazolam - medicines used for injections in the execution of the death penalty. Over the last ten years in Arkansas were not executed prisoners. The seven men were handed down death sentences in the period between 1990 and 2000, the years for murder, robbery and rape. Midazolam is one of the drugs used in the process of execution of a death sentence to the convicts fainted. In the US the use of this drug is considered controversial after 2014, one of the sentenced to death more than 40 minutes remained conscious after the injection of midazolam and died a painful death. European manufacturers of midazolam refuse to deliver to US an additional batch of the drug. Existing stocks will end shortly, so in Arkansas and hurry to execute the death penalty.
The death penalty doesn't deteriorate crime, there is no evidence in this, the only reason they do it, is because they save a few bucks. I forgot who said this but, "an eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind",
There have been cases in which wrongly convicted people have been put on the death penalty only to be found innocent a few hours before they put them to death. WE might have killed an innocent person, or will undoubtedly will kill an innocent person in the future by death penalty. And when that happens, we all become murderers, why? because it is our tax money that pays for it. And if we are all murderers, would we all be put on the death penalty? No, because the truth is, the death penalty isn't about being moral, it's about saving money.
As for a solution, i can think of many ways to save money on lifer's in prison. example, buy them tents instead of thick concrete, have an electric fence a few yards away. throw them a dead cow to eat or something. I think the jail system is way too luxurious.
