One major con might be: What if you convict and then "Kill" the wrong person. You can't just say oops, sorry, here's some money for your pain and suffering. the death penalty is absurdly expensive compared to life without parole. many have argued it goes against the 8th amendment (protection from cruel and unusual punishment) states WITH the death penalty average higher murder rates, however there has yet to be a causal link established.
