No, once people are dead, they’re dead. They are no longer “pending” in terms of their eternal destiny.

On the other hand, the future actions of a killer are indeterminate until they happen, and preventing further evil is a major reason for executions.

No, the murder victims are “pending” before the individual(s) take their life/lives. The only difference is the victims were denied due process. Hence the original argument becomes invalid on how much time the murderers are “blessed” with.
