Solved crime.
Unless you include sacrifice in your “crime” statistic.
This is more an illustration about how language can be used deceptively to hide the truth, rather than a method of reducing acts of malice/destruction.
Are you sure about that?
This assumes that every prisoner has committed a crime and that the police do more to get at the truth than they do to close cases. Looking at history, these are really bad assumptions to make.

Op discovers fascism
Does petty crime that warrants the death penalty, and gets confronted while committing said crime:
Whelp, I’m facing the death penalty if I surrender or get subdued, so I might as well fight to the death, take hostages- anything really, as an alternative to certain death.
Leaves multiple casualties while fighting to the death.
Nice.
The Death God always wins.
Not at crime reduction.
Death God plays the long game.
Death God needs a better spokesperson, that can do more than sidestep criticism.
That’s just death sentence with extra steps…
Actually fewer steps as they wouldn’t care about an appeals process.
Do we have to wear the dumb clothes, too?
