, the Judge gets salary, so does the DA/ADA and most of the shitbirds get appointed Public defenders and they get paid by the case, not the hours - same $$ if it lasts 20 minutes or 5 years. And if they use their own Defense Atty, the bill is on them.
... Hell, the state could sell tickets for "firing line" positions - but I guess it wouldn't be ideal to make the Death penalty profitable 
And with the overcrowding in prisons, Cell space is at a premium.

If the right people were chosen to administer the death penalty in a cost effective efficient manor I would agree with it, but considering the fact the legislature cant even pass a simple constitutional ammendment that the voters of the state wanted. There is no way I think the same knuckleheads should be allowed to decide if someone lives of dies. |

A mother's missionGarcía, mother of five other children between the ages of 20 and 15, is on a mission to reduce her son's time in prison. "There's been a storm in my life the past five years," said García."The day of the sentencing I felt like my heart dropped. That moment, everything went blank." After her son was sentenced, García founded Families United for Justice, to advocate for people believed to be wrongly imprisoned. It has a website and an office on Main Street, where García, a certified paralegal, goes every day to read, research and help others. "They used my son to set an example," she said. "They didn't convict him in the best interest of justice. It was because he's Hispanic*."  Had her son been sentenced to somewhere around 10 years, she said, she would have been able to hold a measure of peace with that. Seeing her child locked away for the best years of his life is another crime, she said. |
