I think life in prison without the possibility of parole and make the entire sentence in solitary confinement in a little dark room is FAR worse.

If I was convicted of murder, I would BEG for the death penalty so I would not have to spend the rest of my life locked up. Death is the easy way out, they are murders MAKE THEM SUFFER!
True but why should the taxpayers pay tens of thousands of dollars a year PER PRISONER to keep them in prison for life?

Did you know prisoners are the only class of people in the US who are guaranteed free healthcare? Who do you think is paying for that?

If we could keep them in prison for life and have them do hard labor to pay for their care, I'd be all for it. But paying for a rapist or murderer to get 3 square meals and free healthcare really gripes my fat butt.
