There is never closure to losing a family member to murder. I've read
of cases in which the family of a murder victim did not want capital
punishment for the murderer. The family of Ted Bundy's victims are
still grieving for their loss. His execution did not bring "closure"
to the loss.

It's fine with me if the victim and her family don't want capital
punishment, as long as I don't have to feed, cloth, shelter and guard
the perp, and as long as the perp can NEVER escape.

You are paying much, much more for appeals to both the State and
Federal Court for a Capital Punishment case than paying for the upkeep
and cost for someone with LWOP. The appellate reviews, the State paid
attorneys for the defendant, State Commission hearings etc. etc. etc.

Main reason I am against the death penalty. . . $$$$$$$$. Rare that we
execute someone relative to the amount on death row and all the extra costs
related to both the trial and all the appeals afterward.
