There wouldn't be an issue with capital punishment if the letter of the law were followed ie beyond all reasonable doubt moreover, if jury's actually served their purpose, perhaps more aptly put, understood the scope of their duty to the fullest, it may be more practical. As it stands, the system is too flawed for the death penalty to be applied. Maybe a pre requisite could be where a defendant pleads guilty, but even then false confessions must be considered, although those differ from plea's.
