When people are about to be executed, what is the most popular fijnal request?
144772
I would imagine most would ask NOT TO BE EXECUTED. This request is almost NEVER granted.

Hmmm.... I think euthanasia. It will make for a more interesting read to most people as the abortion debate has raged openly for decades and as a result most people are already polarised in their decision. For euthanasia, most people avoid the question and the answer... except the Dutch who are the first to legalise it.

I heard that some executioners were, themselves, convicted criminals. They were allowed to remain alive as long as they executed other convicted criminals. I think the executioners that I heard this about were actually hangmen in the American West 1700-1900.

They will ask questions in order to determine if you know anything about the crime already. If you do, you won't be chosen.\n\nThey will also ask about your beliefs of capital punishment and things like that. If you tell them that you are for the death penalty 100%- there is a great chance you won't be chosen for the final jury. :) They don't like people who are that determined to send people to their deaths. Even if you don't believe this way, you can pretend to. It is up to you! \n\nGood luck.

If the criminal admits to the crime, then I agree, kill them the same day.  But if they proclaim their innocence, they have a right to appeal. You are either guilty beyond a reasonable doubt or you aren't...so I don't really think you can put a percentage on guilt to be ok with the execution.\n\nOn a side note, I think that capital punishment is a good crime deterent.  If people are desperate, it won't matter, but it will deter some.

I am in favor of executions for the worst crimes.  For those that think it is "barbaric" to execute a murderer, do you really think the murderer was gentle with his victims?  Do you think the muderer gave the victim time to be with their family and say a tender goodby, like they get before their execution?  I guess you believe the murderer also prepared a  nice last meal for his victim too, right?  And since most executions in the US are now carried out by lethal injection, nice, painless, and peaceful, I guess you believe the muder victim died the same way?\n\nYes, I think the executions should be made public.  Nobody that does not want to attend has to.  And the criminals should lose all of the above perks that they get.  They certainly should not get more than their victims got.

Currently it is more expensive to keep someone on deathrow until execution than it is to keep them in prison for life.  Some estimates say that it can be up to three times as much to execute someone.  You cannot shorten the appeals process because of our constitutional right to appeal.

Death Sentence = Capital Punishment

If you get a life sentence with a possibility of parole, then you can get out early. If you get a life sentence with no possibility of parole, then you serve the entire life sentence.\nPeople who do what the person you refer to did, should get the death penalty. I would be happy to be the executioner.
