The death penalty is immoral when those of wealth and/or celebrity are exempt from it,
as is the case here in the United States.

Whether the system is flawed to the point of allowing the rich to hire lawyers that manipulate juries has nothing specificially to do with the death penatly. It's wrong for a rich man to be able to hire lawyers that prevent a jail sentence as well.
