To everyone who seems to think the death penalty saves lots of tax money:
Death penalty is only cheaper than life imprisonment in places like China, where you not only get executed soon after the verdict without having much possibilities of appeal, but where they (until recently) even used to charge your family members for the bullet used in the execution should they wish to reclaim your body.
This saving money argument isn't valid for the US. All you pro-death sentencers will have to choose between either saving tax money and not being too careful about who gets executed or not... or being careful and having costly trials with even more costly appeals.
