In America you can serve 24 years for a crime you didn’t do, then when DNA evidence exonerates you, they’ll still schedule your execution for September 24th, 2024. This is Marcellus Williams.

People don’t commit murder because they’re making a careful decision and figure the penalty of life in prison is worth the risk, but death might not be.
IMO the death penalty is only useful for social murder. The CEO who signs off on the reduction of safety protocols at a baby formula plant, resulting in numerous infant deaths or the pharma exec who raises prices of a lifesaving drug on the other hand is likely to weigh risk vs reward.
