I am not a fan of prison except for crimes that a short time is compensation and deterant. For PROVEN extreme crimes I don't see making society pay for that person for the rest of their life, allowing them to communicate with and influence society outside of prison, and leaving the opportunity for a crony of theirs to get power and pardon them as a good thing. I am therefore for the death penalty. Not a long drawn out death penalty. A quick one. Yet I do think the PROOF required for such a penalty should be beyond question.
