The mans pocket? Wtf does that even mean?
That money is spent on a variety of things, from the actual execution to the legal fees associated with the appeals process that accompanies most death sentences. And before anyone responds with the 'well do away with the appeals' argument take a second and think about what you're proposing. A system that could sentence people to death with little to no ability for them to appeal their conviction or the sentence imposed. Even with the appeals currently available innocent men have been executed. I shudder to think how many would meet that fate if appeals were done away with.
