Cool Re: death penalty?

I’m in favour of the death penalty for pre-meditated murder but with a couple of caveats.

The case has to be proven beyond ANY DOUBT. If only proven beyond reasonable doubt the accused gets life and it should mean life.

Sentence not to be carried out for at least five years or maybe even ten, to allow for new evidence to be discovered.

The execution to be by lethal injection after the convict has been put to sleep. If an anaesthetist can render a patient unconscious in a few seconds before an operation the same can be done to a convict. Then instead of clearing the airways to administer whatever “keep the patient asleep gasses” that they use these days, the injection to stop the heart is administered.
