Here's my opinion - life in prison is a lot harder on the person than killing them which I personally think lets them off the hook. And as a bonus, if it turns out the person was in fact innocent, it can be righted later. Plus, if a person was heinous enough (Jeffrey Dahmer) the prison population will take care of the problem. I think he lasted 2 weeks in prison, a damn site shorter than if he'd have gotten the death penalty which would have taken years to process. So my bent is really toward upping the punishment, not religious value.
