The real problem that I have is with people like the scumbag who grabbed the 11 year old on video tape and murdered her...or the disgusting creature who buried the 9 year old kid alive and admitted to it.

Serials and child killers really make it difficult for me to think they are even human.

I guess what I am trying to say is if some whacko has admitted to killing children, or a number of random people just because they enjoy the experience then why should they be allowed to roam free or establish a life for themselves even in prison?

I don't believe those types of people could ever become anything but a threat or a cancer to any society that they are hanging around in--including to other inmates in prison.

Let's say you're some stupid guy that shot and killed someone in a drug deal when you were young and on drugs yourself and you have to be subjected to the likes of a Gacy, or a Bundy, or a Dahmer?

But in normal non-psychotic cases I agree with you there is too much room for error in hanging the wrong person.

I don't include the guy they executed last night in the psycho category but I really don't know anything about the case.
