Death Penalty Should the Government be allowed to execute an individual who is diagnosed officially as being mentally deficient? There are numerous stances on this subject. The subject of executing a Mentally deficient individual itself has been debated for many years. Why not add one more opinion to the mix? In order, for me to properly state my opinion on the matter there needs to be extensive research done on the differences between being Mentally Ill, being Mentally Insane, and being…

“I just wanna say i think killin’ is wrong, no matter who does it, whether it’s me or y’all or your government.” Matthew Poncelet spoke his opinion loud and clear. There are many different views on the death penalty. The two films, The Life of David Gale and Dead Man Walking put these views into perspective. David Gale has a very different background than Matthew Poncelet. They both are accused of similar crimes but, the audience soon discovers how flawed the justice system truly is. The Life of…

Sarah Bernard Professor Raymond Greenwood Introduction to Criminology 215s 29 October 2017 Pro-Death Penalty I whole-heartedly believe in the use of the death penalty in cases where the defendant is guilty without a shadow of a doubt. As usual, most criminals that are given the death penalty have committed a homicide. Criminals convicted of rape as well as child molestation also deserve the punishment of death. While the lives of the victims of rape and child molestation do not always end in…

Article Abstract Two: Guilty on All Counts Guilty on All Counts, written by Elizabeth Hull discusses the death penalty and the randomness and inconsistencies of the punishment. The author outlines in the article the many flaws of execution in the United States. There are many arguments about the logistics of this sentence and whether it is a cruel or unusual punishment. First, the article explains how the death penalty is gravely flawed. The death penalty has no consistency, and it seems like a…

China, the death penalty has been in place as a punishment and throughout history people came up with newer and more eventful ways of executing individuals (Reggio). Currently in the United States, there are five practiced ways of execution; lethal injection, electrocution, the gas chamber, hanging, and firing squad. Since the government and states have no power of giving life, it shouldn’t practice its power of taking human life. The costs of a trial for the death penalty is an outrageously…

Dick and Perry's lives in the Book, “In Cold Blood,” were portrayed as cold blooded murders in Holcomb. The murders they committed were lethal, brutal, and some may dare to say inhumane. The killing of the Clutter family is the main focus of the book, and although you clearly can justify the fact that Dick and Perry deserve to die for what they did, Truman Capote, the author of the book seems to think that the capital punishment should be stopped and was not necessary on behalf of the murders, I…

Death Penalty: Killing Hundreds of Humans Each year less than hundreds of humans are killed...legally. The death penalty is something used to the criminals that have done a horrific crime such as man slaughter, mass killings, etc. The death penalty is something that is used when the police officers and/or judge has decided that the criminal does not deserve to live after the crimes he or she has done. The death penalty should not be used because it is cruel, hypocritical, and not a good…

The act of killing those guilty of killing another person has been practiced since the beginning of time. Early empires and colonies all had laws in place that not only protected, but also encouraged those guilty of murder put to be death. While we do not use those exact laws in today’s society, we do still practice capital punishment. Which I believe is just. Today, capital punishment is only available for what society would consider the worst of the worst. Each state has different criteria…

The word “death” is adept at sending a cold, frightening shiver down the spine of any human. It is a major fear factor that has been lurking around the corner since the beginning of time, for governments have been using death to their advantage to threaten and bend people to their own will since the eighteenth century B.C. The threat towards one life for not adhering to government laws is called capital punishment, and it is still very much active in present day society. In fact, the death…

Between 1973 and 2015, one hundred and fifty-six inmates were exonerated from death row in the United States after new evidence demonstrated they were wrongfully convicted (Mallicoat, 2016). Anthony Porter came within forty-eight hours of being put to death for a double murder after serving seventeen years on death row before new evidence proved his innocence (University of Michigan Law School, 2012). Although the death penalty remains a controversial topic in the United States, most Americans…
