The death penalty in declineThe United States adopted capital punishment from England more than three centuries ago. Not only had the sentence been adopted, but also the terms of execution. Over the centuries, people in the United States have become more aware of how the criminal justice system works and how it varies from state to state. Some states executed people who committed minor crimes, such as stealing fruit. Maybe people will disagree with me, but I believe that the death penalty has helped prevent criminals from committing certain capital crimes. Even though the United States Supreme Court has abolished the death penalty for the mentally disabled and juveniles, the number of executions seems difficult to stabilize. Additionally, the role of religion in capital punishment appears to be declining. Does a murderer consider the possibility of being sentenced to death before committing a crime? The answer might be based on the murderer's reason for breaking the law. However, few studies have been carried out on criminology and its factors. However, today, more educated people are influencing the structure of capital punishment through more detailed research. Regardless, Gaines and Millers dispute some reports from the 2000s that assert that “each execution deters between three and eighteen future homicides” (274). The ideology of the death penalty has evolved over the years, particularly after the 1930s. Perhaps because the Department of Justice did not begin counting until the 1930s. Additionally, it was confirmed that “there is no reliable count of executions before 1930” (Banner 313). However, since some studies indicate that each execution deters between three and eighteen future homicides, the death penalty seems to correspond to our beliefs which, to be concretized, have been interpreted in the form of orders. Expressing the idea that the role of religion is declining, Banner argues that "the retributive justification for the death penalty was meanwhile being further eroded by the decline of the role of religion in public life (213). In this sense, the existence of the death penalty facilitates the deterrence of criminals. After examining the results of the execution rate since 1947, it seems difficult to stabilize the number of executions at low rates, despite the removal of juveniles and the mentally disabled from death row. The role of religion in structuring the death penalty process is important. could collapse. Thus, the death penalty appears to be in decline, although not all states appear to benefit from changes made by the Justice Department over the centuries..
