I don't really care about deterrence to be blunt. Some people are just too violent and costly to have in society, or to have indefinitely imprisoned. I'd prefer to execute violent repeat offenders, as opposed to having them rot in prison (at tax payer expense) or get out on parole then inevitably rape/kill/maim again.

The taxpayer argument does not really float because the appeals cost more money than imprisoning someone
