In full agreement with the OP ! And ... televised please to achieve the most impact to those who might tempt the noose and their fate as well as those of their proposed victims.

Detractors of the death penaly always decry that it doesn't deter the crimes those on the receiving end of it commit. One thing's assured in it though, dead murders and rapists will never harm another innocent soul .... and to me, that's a good thing.

Those who commit heinous acts of violence against their fellow man have no right to continue to strain the social fabric of a civilized society, nor expect to live out their lives even in the confinement of prison at the expense of others.

Death by whatever means is the best payment for their debt
