Do innocent people deserve to die if accused of murder?

no, they have done nothing to hurt you so why kill them over nothing? If i accused you of killing my dog, but you never did, and i had no proof, why should you die? If i had false proof, then other's would figure out that on their own, and the innocent people would be proved innocent.
