Well of course they are certain that everyone convicted did the thing. But there are cases where people have been sentenced to death and are innocent. When you're innocent, prison is bad enough, losing your only life is unforgivable.

I guess I am talking about the cases where there is absolutely ZERO doubt. I understand that everyone convicted supposedly was guilty, but I would only approve of death sentences where it is undeniable. Example: Dude from Making a Murderer-no death penalty. Guys from Connecticut murders-Death Penalty.

But I get your point, if we aren't a hundred percent certain, should they be in jail? I get it...

You have to have complete faith in a system of government that can barely run an election securely. I don't have that faith, therefore I assume some percentage of convicted criminals are innocent and this extends to death sentence. In all cases though as far as the system is concerned they are 100% guilty.
