Why is life in prison any less cruel than simply killing someone?

Because, (not to be repetitive) I just don't think anyone has the
moral right to take someone's life in these circumstances. Killing
the enemy in a war is different as is killing someone in self defense
when otherwise your life may be in danger or lost.

Considering we are now saying that it is OK to be killing American
citizens with drones who are only suspected of crimes (along with
everyone near them), I think that is a specious argument.

These people had due process and a number of appeals before they even
get close to the needle. It is not a reckless decision these days and
if that many courts say it is in our interest to terminate someone, do
it.

Our friends daughter was kidnapped and tortured. The two convicted were
sentenced to death. That was at least 10 years ago. Still sitting in
prison.

He will die of old age there unless they somehow find a reason to turn
him loose.
He may even get a new trial, after all of the witnesses are dead and
the evidence is lost, and be one of those "innocent" people who were
wrongfully convicted.

Doubt the evidence going away. But death by old age is most likely.
