9. if someone could explain this to me

other industrialized countries have either completely abolished the death penalty or reserve it only for the case of high treason. How then, do the loved ones of murder victims cope with their loss and get on with their lives? We are told so often that the death penalty is appropriate so the loved ones can feel a sense of closure. Why is it that we can't cope with the loss or get on with our lives without the death penalty?
