Death By Emotional, Mental Torture

If a person commits a murder so heinous he can never be trusted to draw another breath in free society, Idaho can impose life in prison without the possibility of parole. Or it can seek the death penalty. Just as often, however, Idaho has inflicted another form of punishment: Locking up someone in death row and then waiting for the years to take their toll on the inmate’s body and soul. Since Idaho reinstated capital punishment in the 1970s, four death row inmates have died before an execution could be carried out/ Marty Trillhaase , Lewiston Tribune. More here.

Question: Does it bother you that Death Row inmates suffer mentally and emotionally, and sometimes die before an execution can be carried out many years after they’re sentenced?
