Turtle made a good point, even though people commit horrible murders, they can turn around and try to do right again after realising what they've done. It's inexcusable to ask for the murdered persons family to support this, but everyone should have the right to live, even in a prison for punishment, I'm not saying that it's right to do crime then turn all nice, but I heard before that's what imprisonment is supposed to do, which is change your opinions of making crimes again.

" Some people are not worth the expense of having around "

At what expense, 5 million dollars, a persons job like Prison Warden? People commit crimes for many reasons, mental, social and stress, although this is no excuse for committing the murder, those in their right mind wouldn't do it, that's no reason to kill them off, it's obvious they need mental help to make them think straight. It's not a computer game we deal with here, it's people lives.
