As a side note. A death penalty case actually costs more than a life sentence.
In the US where they decided to make the punitive system for-profit?
Of course.
No. It's more that they have higher costs and it averages out around 20 years. So it's close to the average length of a life sentence except if they're young. It's only real cheap if you have a kangaroo court and just shoot people.
It doesn't need to.
