Wait, what?
No you don't. All you have to do is make it available for cases like this. Making it legal lets courts use it in situations like this. Maybe this would be the only case they use it on this year, that's fine, but it needs to be legal for it to be an option.
I'm very confident that noone believes that the death penalty is 'right for everyone.'
