Letting them live in a cell with a roof over their head and three meals a day doesn't really work for me folks.
Exactly! Or shoot worried about the cost? If someone is convicted of murdering one of MY family members, then hand the asshole over to me and my family. We'll make sure that he's taken care of and it won't be a burden to the tax payers.

There is no way I'd want them living in a cell for the rest of their lives, eating great, getting an education, having a job while in jail etc. No way in Hell.
