I have to say if anything it would swing us even more in favor of the death penalty.
After all he murderer just ended the only life the victims will ever have, and they are now totally lost. There is no devine retrobution for those crimes, and 'vengence is mine sayith the lord' means nothing. As such the only 'justice' would be an eye for an eye, who cares if a murderer lives or dies, we can't allow him to kill again.
