Has the death penalty been used for this sort of crime before in Vietnam and has it been effective at deterring others in a measurable way?

Has the death sentence been a deterrent for any crime?

No it's a big show for statists to show how strong and dominating they are. It's not about your lowly practical concerns. It doesn't even matter of they kill the right one. As long as blood is spilled. The anger of the masses will be sated for a little while and all will know there is no escape from the violence of the state.
