Missing College Student

Would you rather just be put down now or spend the next 50 or so years in the cage with the rest of the animals?  I suspect that a good number of people locked up for the rest of their lives would gladly accept a nice quiet needle death over the everyday violence and terror of prison. 
It's certainly not a deterrent. Very few, if any murderers think they'll ever get caught in the first place . You can make all the threats of capital punishment you want, but if nobody thinks they'll be caught it doesn't really add anything to public safety.. 

Then why do they fight their sentence until every last option is gone?
