Honestly, if there is proof beyond a shadow of a doubt, ie there is direct video evidence of the person or multiple eye witness testimony as well as cops showing up and seeing that yes, this person has removed peopleās faces and has consumed them, then yes the death penalty is fine. However, if there is even a whiff of a shadow of a doubt the best there can be is life in prison.

I've been wrestling with this myself since the verdict came down for Chad Daybell. Yes, he's guilty of the deaths of three people, two of which were children because of his absurd religious beliefs. Now he's facing the death penalty for his crimes.
Punishment is intended to be a deterrent against future crime and a means of penalizing the perpetrator, but is the death penalty justice.
I have to wonder though, would putting Chad to death deter future religious extremists from committing the same crime. I doubt it.
The cold hearted murders were evil but so was his religious beliefs that birthed it.
I do think he needs to be removed from society. He has a high probability of committing more murders because of his deeply held religious beliefs, therefore he's not safe to be around. Perhaps spending the rest of his life locked down 24 hours a day in a prison is the best remedy, idk.
This is indeed a heavy weight to weigh out in our minds. I agree that this seems more about vengeance, from our perspective, and I wish we could rise above it. But we also have to consider the wishes of the victims families. If they want the death penalty, and I think they did, shouldn't we honor their request. After all, they are also his victims in this terrible event who will live every day they have left with the reality Chad created. My heart breaks for them.
Would Chads death be justice or retribution. It feels like retribution to me and maybe that is justice as a double edge sword. It cuts both ways but still justice.
I don't have to like or agree with the death penalty or be happy about it for it to still be justice. It's justice for the victims and in the end, it's the point.

Don't think you mentioned nearly 200 people have been exonerated from death row. That alone should tell you the death penalty is flawed. How many innocent people have died for our vengeance? Even 1 innocent person is too much.
