Well that's one statement that's been proven wrong over and over again. The FEW states in the US that allow and follow through with the Death Sentence are the states the criminals try to avoid.

Death sentences make dead criminals.
(Dead criminals don't commit anymore crimes.)

Feeding them out of date food that was going to be thrown away makes them less like to be repeat offenders also.

An unexpected turn of events

HAMBURG, Germany - A German court Thursday freed a Moroccan accused of supporting the Sept. 11 al-Qaida cell in Hamburg, saying there was new evidence he did not know about the plot. The decision also cast doubt on the only conviction so far in the suicide attacks in the United States.

The new evidence suggested that those involved in the terrorist plot were only the three Hamburg-based suicide hijackers and their alleged al-Qaida liaison.

Abdelghani Mzoudi, 31, was escorted to a taxi by his two lawyers after court adjourned for the day. He spent his lunch hour in his lawyers' office, rather than in a holding cell, and smiled and waved to friends and supporters who came to the court after hearing the news of his release. He made no statement.
