Who cares about the deterrent factor? The death penalty is for punishment, and not a single criminal who\’s been put to death has ever hurt another victim. Incarceration for insurance fraud would most certainly be a deterrent as well as punishment. Get a grip, people!
Consider your source MSU ? Having grown up in Washington DC Handgun murder capital of the world and where it is illegal to even own a handgun also DC has no death penalty–cross over to Virgina where you can take a handgun home today but has a death penalty and review the handgun murder rates for DC compared to Arlington or Fairfax County. If it not gun ownership or availabilty what is it? Loser liberals!! I hope you are the victim of a crime one day so you can see just how terrible you liberals have made our justice system. There is an old saying if you want justice go to a ***** house if you want to get screwed go to the court house!
Spending time in jail for insurance fraud would be a deterant if more people were convicted. It still took 3 years to convict this one guy!
Sort of like the death penalty, it\’s hardly a deterent when you don\’t use it!
Death penalty is not a detterent:

The death penalty could be a better deterrent if we would put in an express lane like they did in Texas. The more, the better!!
