Just find an island no-one likes, and if someone is convicted beyond a shadow of a doubt, send them there to live their life.
But so is killing them, and that makes every tax payer a murderer.
Yep, totally agree. Capital punishment isn't the way to go. A lot of people have been executed, only to be found innocent at a later time.
Labour is also an option to make lifers cost-effective - Make them manufacture stuff so that the money we spend on them goes back into society.
