  • Death Penalty Deter Crime
    1,379 words
    I, Judge Brady, am sentencing Paula Pretty to a life in prison with no possibility of parole for the murder of a 16 year old female. My decision to oppose the death penalty is based on moral, practical, as well as constitutional grounds. I realize that many of my voters do not support me in my decision, however, I cannot go against my strong belief of a persons right to life. My job as a judge is to uphold the constitution and judge the actions of the accused, not the accused. I am a judge, not ...

  • Recidivism Of Sex Offenders
    1,305 words
    Sex offenders have been a serious problem for our legal system at all levels, not to mention those who have been their victims. There are 43, 000 inmates in prison for sexual offenses while each year in this country over 510, 000 children are sexually assaulted (Oakes 99). The latter statistic, in its context, does not convey the severity of the situation. Each year 510, 000 children have their childhoods destroyed, possibly on more than one occasion, and are faced with dealing with the assault ...

  • Cruel And Unusual Punishment School Of Thought
    1,402 words
    Many positions can be defended when debating the issue of capital punishment. In Jonathan Glover's essay "Executions, " he maintains that there are three views that a person may have in regard to capital punishment: the retributivist, the absolutist, and the utilitarian. Although Glover recognizes that both statistical and intuitive evidence cannot validate the benefits of capital punishment, he can be considered a utilitarian because he believes that social usefulness is the only way to justify...

    ... ent no longer exists in Canada. From established statistics it was found that there seems to be a striking correlation between the race of the offenders and the probability of them receiving a death sentence. In capital cases, black defendants statistically receive the death sentence more that the white defendants. This evidence of discrimination is confirmed by a study of the outcome of murder cases in Ohio between 1974 and 1977. "In cases where the victim was white and the offender was bla...

  • Cruel And Unusual Punishment Death Penalty
    620 words
    There are many things that I dont agree with in todays society, but out of all the wrong doings that take place, I believe the death penalty is the worst of them all. I am strongly against the death penalty because it violates Gods rules, costs the tax payers too much money, prisoners could be wrongly convicted, and it is cruel and unusual punishment. The first reason why I do not support having the death penalty is that it violates religious beliefs. Many religions, such as my own, Catholicism,...

    There has been much controversy over capital punishment over the years. Few people in the United States see capital punishment as being wrong. It is said that Canada is way too easy on their criminals because they do not punish the convicts by the death penalty. Canada says that the United States is way to strict on their criminals because they execute their convicts by the death penalty. Should murderers be murdered for their crimes or should they spend the rest of their lives perishing in pris...

    In my opinion, one of the most controversial topics in the Supreme Court is the idea of capital punishment. The Eighth Amendment of the United States constitution guarantees freedom from cruel and unusual punishment but the Supreme Court has upheld the constitutionality of the death penalty in todays society. Thirty-eight states and the federal government authorize capital punishment and the number of people on death row has risen to more than 3, 500 (Clear and Cole). Of the yearly 22, 000 arres...

    For many years the death penalty has been the sentence for murders, rapists, and other serial criminals. But, in recent months it has been an issue in whether the death penalty should or should not be legal. There are many people that think that capital punishment should be used and there are others that feel that it should not be used. Also there are some in the middle that think that it doesn't really matter because they feel that whatever happens will be right because it was brought up and de...

    In Atlanta, former President Jimmy Carter said, This ruling acknowledges the profound inconsistency in prohibiting those under 18 years of age from voting, serving in the military, or buying cigarettes, while allowing them to be sentenced to the ultimate punishment (U. S. Department of State, 2005) The death penalty will always be a subject that is debated nation and world wide. There will never be a compromise between the two parties involved in the argument.

  • Life Without Parole Cruel And Unusual Punishment
    1,753 words
    The topic I chose for my research paper is Capital punishment. I chose this topic because I think Capital punishment should be banned in all states. The death penalty violates religious beliefs about killing, remains unfair to minorities and is therefore unconstitutional, and is inhumane and barbaric. The death penalty constitutes cruel and unusual punishment in violation of the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments (Bedau 2). Those who had shown no respect for life would be restrained, permanently i...

    4,294 words
    Whenever the word death penalty comes up, extremists from both sides of the spectrum begin to wildly express their opinions. One side says deterrence, the other side says theres a potential of executing an innocent man. One says justice, retribution, and punishment, the other side says execution is murder. However, all arguments aside, the best way and the only way to truly make a rational decision about capital punishment is to examine the purpose of our criminal justice system. Once the purpos...

The question with which we must deal is not whether a substantial proportion of American citizens would today, if polled, opine that capital punishment is barbarously cruel, but whether they would find it to be so in light of all information presently available. ? - Justice Thurgood Marshall Imagine a man who commits murder once, is given a fifteen-year jail sentence and is returned to the streets where he kills again. He is imprisoned again on...

    Dead. Wrong. Most people do not know what goes on during a death penalty. The following is an eye witness account of an Arizona gas chamber execution given by Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens: When the fumes enveloped Dons head he took a quick breath. A few seconds later, he looked again in my direction. His face was red and contorted as if he were attempting to fight through tremendous pain. His mouth was pursed shut and his jaw was clenched tight. Don then took several more quick gulps ...
