From someone who lives in a state that hasn’t executed anyone since the 1850s
Housing prisoners for their lifetimes is a HUGE part of our economy in Wisconsin. Our Supermax prisons are second to none.
We may not have the Death Penalty, BUT - you can easily be ‘Dahmerized’ in our prisons if the other fine, upstanding criminals feel your misdeeds egregious enough.
So, we’ve got THAT going for us. ;)
