it would also save money if we convict them, give them one appeal, and if they lose that ONE appeal, execute them within 60 days. always allow dna evidence and a top notch attorney that way no one can say they got the shaft. this nonsense of keeping murderers alive on death row for years and years is stupid.

I've heard one suggestion is that in every death penalty case have the appeals judge sit and observe the trial so he knows what actually happened rather than what some shyster lawyer claims happened in the court room five years after the fact.
