With all the recent hype over the 2013 Jodi Arias trial, I
feel the need to ask if there is justification in sentencing criminals to death.
In my personal opinion there is no victory in providing convicted criminals
with the death penalty. To them it is more of an easy way out, they don’t have
to atone for their crimes. Do we truly get any satisfaction in knowing that
they will soon be dead? It doesn’t create progress, and it doesn’t better the
future in any way. We feel like these people should be punished for taking a
human life, and that it’s fair in return for them to have theirs taken away. To
me that doesn’t make sense. How do you feel about criminals and the death
penalty? Do they deserve it or does life in prison serve as justice?
