Studies have continuously shown that the death penalty is much more expensive than incarcerating someone for life, with no chance of parole.
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Even in the idea of which will save more, the killing or the incarcerating, will be spending the same amount when it comes to possible effects of it.

Allow me to poke holes in the above.
Ex. If I show that 85% of crimes are committed by people wearing sneakers, would it be correct to assume that nice shoes prevent crime? Or that sneakers cause crime? Of course not . . . yet that is exactly the kind of link the above is being used to imply.
I can not prove that the death penalty is a deturrent.
I can not prove that the death penalty is not a deturrent.
There are too many variables to isolate this.
So I freely admit it is my opinion that it "may" be a deturrent, frankly that is good enough for me.
Incarcerating someone for life, with no chance of parole sounds great but 1) prisons are over crowded 2) laws could change 3) inmates could escape, so as long as someone is alive there is a slim possibility they could be freed.
Actually, the death penalty has been shown time and again NOT to be a deterrent. And someone locked up for life, without the possibility of parole also has 0% chance of re-offending. Thoughts? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/tamar-abrams/experts-agree-death-penal_b_217394.html
