The Death Penalty; The Shoulder for Family of Murder Victims to Lean On In loving memory of Casey Williamson
Angela Williamson is a close family friend of mine, so when she was hit with the tragedy of losing her 6 year old daughter to murder, I was devastated. This guy put Casey in a dumpster and topped her body off with bricks, so of course he is on death row but here’s the catch… he hasn’t been executed yet. There would be less stress on the family if the death penalty had been legalized in the first place. The death penalty is a good thing because it has its positives , you’d be able to get closure and spend less money.
ThePositivesof the Death Penalty • Normally , the people who have been sentenced the death penalty are dangerous human beings. • The thought that the consequence of a crime should rise up to the crimes standards is thought by many people.
Family Closure • “People feel more at ease when they think that people get what they deserve or when they have the same done to them as they did another” • “To murder victims’ families executing killers is justice”
Less Money Being Paid • “If violent offenders knew that the punishment was death not 3 meals a day and shelter , less crimes would happen and there would be less of a burden on our already weak economy” • It is much more costly to pay for someone to spend their life in prison rather than to pay for them to get what they deserve.
Family closure, positives, and having to pay less money are a few reasons why the death penalty should be legal. The only way to prevent other families from having the pain my friends family did is to make the death penalty legal. Just think … How would you have felt if it was your daughter?
This may not be the best picture of her but it was her last. I found it very ironic how when her last picture was taken , she was showing us that god had her heart and would live eternally.
