  1. CAPITAL PUNISHMENT By Neil Herbe PD.7

  2. Capital Punishment • Better known as the death penalty • planned taking of a human life by a government • A lot of people don’t agree with the death penalty • In my opinion it is necessary

  3. Capital Crimes • Murder- killing of someone • Treason- trying to take over the government • Espionage- the use of illegal spies • There are more in other countries

  4. Ways of Using the Death Penalty • The USAuses lethal injection • Other ways are electrocuting , shooting, and hanging • There are other brutal ways but they are very immoral and painful

  5. Pros • People refrain from committing crimes out of fear • A person may again commit the same crime • It is said that imprisoning someone is more expensive • Sentencing someone to death brings relief • Safety prison inmates and guards

  6. Cons • Innocent people have been killed • They are committing the same act • Every human being is entitled to receive a second chance in life • Crimes are prevalent in countries where capital punishment exists and also where it has been abolished

  7. My opinion • Why use our tax money to keep a killer in jail • We should get rid of the people causing these crimes “An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth” • The notion that for every wrong done there should be a compensating measure of justice

  8. Religion • People believe it is against the act of god • Bible clearly states the death penalty as valid • The Old Testament law • God often showed mercy when to death penalty • Convicted have no chance to forgiveness

  9. Money • it is arguable if capital punishment is truly cost effective • Imprisoning someone life is much more expensive • However with the expensive costs of appeals in courts of law

  10. Anti-Capital Punishment • People want it to end • Innocent people have been killed from being accused • And they think its wrong to kill • Or it is un moral
