I love to watch Law & Order. The attorneys always seem to be using the death penalty as a way to get the criminals to rat out their partners or to plead to murder with life w/o parol instead of going to trial. The old "if you tell us what happen we'll take the death penalty off the table". I wonder if this happens in real life. If it does, then let's keep that ability around for a while.

Also, I would love to see if life w/o parol is really true. If life w/o parol was REALLY true, then I would be against the death penalty because there would be a better alternative. But it seems that the news is always showing old men who get out of prison after 30 or 40 years when they are in their 60s/70s, because of reasons like good behavior and overcrowing.
