I think I would be devestated if something of that sort happened.
However, I do not believe death penalty is the way to deal with a
crime. We all die anyway, if we can give them life with out parole, it
can be pretty bad. As for the food, I doubt very much if iit is all
that tasty. Sex? Well.. I am not sure if it is all that pleasant in
prison.And on a practical note, it costs more to go through a death
penalty phase with all the hoopla that goes with it than it does to
house them the rest of their lives.
