While I don't believe that the death penalty should be abolished, I do believe that it should be tightly limited to those who:
1. Have committed a heinous crime, AND
2. Have DEMONSTRATED that they are un-incarcerable.

Kill again while serving a life sentence and never based on eyewitness testimony only.

That's about the same conclusion I've come to. I oppose capital punishment in general, but there needs to be a last in extremis option for people who continue to commit violent crimes after they're sentenced to life without parole.
