How does the death penalty affect the crime rate in the US?
All criminal sanctions reduce crime rates. Anyone that doubts that, just ask them what would happen if we did away with all criminal sanctions for all crimes. Therefore, yes, the death penalty deters, but it may not show up in crime rates. Very few crimes are death penalty eligible and executions are even more rare. All criminal sanctions, including the death penalty, deter some. Thereofe, there will be fewer crimes and fewer murders because we have criminal sanctions, than if we didn't have those sanctions. Even if it doesn't show up in year to year crime rate, there will be NET fewer crimes, than if we had no sanctions. Dudley Sharp
