I did not see your edit.Quite a few to be found here.I'm also aware that there are cases where the convicted murderer was later found innocent.
link please ?
of course that link proves the point
NO innocent person has been executed* which is what we are discussing *
those that a reason has been found to give them the benefit of the doubt has been released from prison
the other cases mentioned where not proven innocent just they MAY BE LAWYER TALK
i dont think there any cases of persons executed who should NOT have been
i think there are cases of persons not executed who should have been
Just an aside...
The first season of Star Trek the next Generation had an episode where the planet the Enterprise was visiting had a very simple criminal justice system- all crimes were punishable by death. Commit Murder. Lethal injection. Steal property? Lethal injection. Step on the grass when you weren't supposed to? Lethal injection.

Rather thick are we?
I'm not a mind reader. Say what you mean and mean what you say.
in relation to what I might discuss with a 12-13 year old Buddhist child whose parent was murdered.
Speaks for itself.
An eye for an eye. Right or wrong?
I say it is wrong.
All human life is sacred. Society has a moral obligation to protect human life, not take it. The death penalty harms society by cheapening the value of life. Allowing the state to inflict death on certain of its citizens legitimizes the taking of life. The death of anyone, even a convicted killer, diminishes us all. Society has a duty to end this practice which causes such harm, yet produces little in the way of benefits.
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
Are you going to offer support as they pray to Budda for a execution?The motivation is to meet the child where the child is in his or her healing process and offer support.

I'm sure the kid would feel much better if they became pen pals with the person who raped and murdered their mom.Executing the perpetrator has nothing to do with healing for a young, traumatized child. Out of control adults filled with their own vengeance and rage, will not help a traumatized child by telling the child the perpetrator has been executed.
I support the Death Penalty for the most outrageous Crimes. Mass Murder. Torture ending in Murder. I support it when the Convicted Petitions for it.

That last would relate to a right to suicide. I suppose it's the only time I would support it myself.
For the rest, I find that everyone advancing this argument assumes that the convicted are actually guilty of the crimes of which they are accused. If that's true, then the death penalty becomes justifiable. But what if they aren't?
That's the whole problem with execution. It is final. There's no going back. If justice miscarries, there is no way to make it right. If a person is imprisoned wrongly, upon that being discovered he can be freed and the state can pay compensation for the wrongful punishment. But if the person is dead, that option does not exist.
We have rights of the accused, presumption of innocence, due process, all these things to protect the innocent from the power of the state, which is capable of making errors. I suggest that one other thing is needed: the state must not kill convicted criminals, or in any other way punish them where there is no possibility of redress in the event of a miscarriage of justice.
