Death Penalty

There are studies that show that death penalty is indeed an effective factor to prevent crime. Various academic studies state that between 3 to 18 lives are saved by each execution that occurred. An economics professor at University of Colorado, Naci Mocan, co-authored a 2003 study and also in 2006 where he found out that each death penalty that is done led to the conclusion that it leads to five lesser homicides, which means that removing the Capital Punishment will result to five more homicides. In fact, that study is among the other xii researches that show that death penalty absolutely has a preventive factor. The studies focus on executions and foul plays per year and by state (in America) trying to deny the fact that death penalty does reduce crimes. However, among other studies it shows that, given by Emory University professors" 2003 nationwide study, Capital Punishment hinders 18 felonies whereas, other conducted studies show that in every execution, death penalty discourages three, five, and fourteen. According to University of Houston"s 2006 study, the Illinois government"s suspension on Capital Punishment in 2000 has resulted on 150 increased murders followed by four years. Bestowed by an Emory University professor in 2004, one homicide would be deterred for each 2.75 years removed from time wasted on death row, which defines that speeding up the process of death penalty would boost its deterrent factor. [1] There is important information given by David B. Muhlhausen that gives more great studies that show that Capital Punishment deters crime"and save lives. Independently, Professor Shepherd"s research in this topic where he recorded monthly data from 1977 to 1999 settled three important points: (1) it lessens 3 murders; (2) it prevents the homicide of one White American, 1.5 African-American and 0.5 in other races, (3) shortening the waiting period of those in death row by 2.75 years would prohibit one crime. Auburn University"s Professor Robert B. Ekelund, with his associates, used a small state-level data from 1995 to 1999 and the outcome of the study is that death penalty lessens single murder rates. From 1960 to 2000, Professors Dezhbakhsh and Shepherd used a state-level panel data to conduct a research about the link between executions and homicides before, during, and after the U.S. Supreme Court granted the suspension of Capital Punishment. The conclusion of the study is that the carrying out of moratoria is related to added killing incidents. As shown in this image: http://www.heritage.org..., Americans overwhelmingly favored Capital Punishment. Why did I bring this in this argument? It is because they support it for two good reasons: (1) There is scant information that states that proposes that Capital Punishment treats minorities cruelly and that (2) it deterrents crime. [2] Abolitionists demanded that it is more costly but the yearly imprisonment costs are $40,000 to $50,000 a year per prisoner. Given by J.F.A (Justice For All), life without parole costs over $1.2 to 3.6 million more expensive than death penalty cases. [3] According to Gary D. Beatty, a Florida Assistant State Attorney, wrote that "If the mu[l]tiple layers of appeal are pursued in an ethical, and fiscally responsible manner, execution is less costly than warehousing a murderer for life." (4) Abolitionists asserted that it is "atrocious and bizarre punishment", but the 5th Amendment says otherwise. Thus, the Constitution grants death penalty. Genesis 9:6, Exodus 21:12, and Revelation 13:10 shows that God used it first. (1) http://www.cbsnews.com... (2) http://www.heritage.org... (3) http://www.prodeathpenalty.com...
