Certain death and finality is a ton less stressful than the American legal system stretching out a failed cause for 10 to 35 years. They also tend to pump the soon to die full of psychotropics and it becomes taking grandma out for a nice meal.
There have been death row inmates who left things to eat later, told people they will talk to them later. As a good number of these people lived as solders in street gangs, the assumption is there is nothing the state can do to them that their friends or enemies could not be planning for them tomorrow.

Several years ago a USAF guy told of his witnessing a beheading in a Middle Eastern country. He said the guy just walked out there, willingly knelt and bowed down, then off came his head in one lop. I asked why he didn’t fight it, the USAF guy said they drug them first.
So yes, they can drug a person so they may think they are going for a walk in the park, when in actuality they are taking a walk to Hell’s gate.
