    If a person is going to continue being threat to the lives/wellbeing of others, they should be kept away from others.

    If you lack the resources to keep them in an institution indefinitely, then killing them is the way you keep them away from others.

    For example, a person who isnt in their right mind committing homicide because the voices in their head tell them to should be institutionalized by the government.

    Whereas a billionaire pedophile should probably just be killed because they can bribe their way out of any institution/law so murder is unfortunately more likely to prevent future harm than attempting to institutionalize them

      I feel like a billionaire pedophile can afford to buy a fall guy to take the death penalty for them.
