The death penalty is the greatest(wrong word – most severe way of punishment,(Why is

there a comma here?) since there is no worse punishment than death itself. Although article death

penalty's main aim is to punish the worst criminals, the act is still forbidden in many countries.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether death penalty should be abolished.

First of all, the death penalty seems like a justifiable deterrence in reducing the crime's

rate. To sentence the worst murderers to less than capital punishment would not achieve justice

since the punishment; for example, long prison time might be inadequate to the crime. Moreover,

prosecutors, judges, and victim's families comprehend this crucial point. (Feser & Bessette,

2016). Sentencing the worst murders only to prison will not serve the right justice to the victim's

closest ones and to the victims themselves. Furthermore, in some cases capital punishment

seems to be the only way to punish a criminal. Thus, the abolishment of the death penalty would

eliminate adequate punishment for the worst criminals.

Moreover, the death penalty can be conceived as an inspirational tool for the community.

Using different types of cases and statistics during investigations usually shows a strong

connection between the death penalties and a reduced rate of homicides. Therefore, the death

penalty as a matter of fact saves innocent people. (Muhlhausen, 2014). Allowing the death

penalty will result in a decrease of murders. The act of execution may seem like an adequate

deterrent against murderers. Although death penalty is an extreme way of punishment, the

abolishment of the criminal's execution may increase the rate of homicides.

On the other hand, the world is filled with enough violence, and many believe that one

more act of brutality only makes this worse. Granting permission to execute murderers is

unacceptable on the moral level and makes life profane. (Thompson, 2016). Life ought to be
sacred, and from the moral perspective no one should decide whether the life of another human

being should be taken away. Indeed, taking the life of one human being does not bring back

those who were murdered. That is why execution of criminals should not be allowed, for this

reflects the most primitive form of behavior.

Finally, capital punishment is against moral standards and established law. Laws

preventing execution of criminals exist to avoid seeking revenge and creating someone's own

vision of justice. Furthermore, anyone who does that; for instance, murders the criminal

becomes the murderer himself and has to reckon with the consequences. Thus, execution by the

nation is even worse than execution by an individual person. (Simanovic, 2015). Capital

punishment not only goes against the standards of humanity, but it also degrades the society.

Execution does not reverse crime and there is no reason to do make such purposeless actions.

Thus, the death penalty ought to be abolished due to the moral and the social reasons.

To sum up, this study found the consequences of abolishment of the death penalty for the

most heinous criminals. There is a high risk of allowing the justice system to execute another

human being. However, abolishment of the death penalties would eliminate adequate deterrent

against murderers.
