The punishment is the time before death. The death itself really isn't anything.

Psychobabble isn't a word that I recognize. Kinda like when people call police officers "pigs". You'll have to use something else if people are going to understand what you're communicating.
The people witness the deaths now being aware of what's to come, considering that having a looking glass into the future really is quite rare and all. The nice thing about being educated on a subject is that when I say something I know and that I've had extensive training with and someone without the benefit of that training simply says "Nope, not true," it just tells me that I was very fortunate to have that education. The reality, based on studies and precedence, is that most of the family and friends of victims in a case in which the accused is executed tend to have higher and more severe depression after the execution. Odds are if, in some bizarro alternate universe, I were to rape and kill your wife, be arrested and found guilty, and was sentenced to death, you'd end up worse off from a psychological standpoint after my execution.

Whats hilarious is you can tell that they want them to say something bad about the execution.
So sorry Willy I don't buy that pyschobabble.
Oh so now being against the death penalty is for the victims eh? Give me a break, ask Mr. Howell there if he wants you to protect him from it.

I'm sure you'll notice that this interview was very soon after the execution. The day after, in fact. Had you been properly instructed and educated, you'd understand that depression rarely sets in after less than 24 hours. As a matter of fact, it can take months. So all that you've done here is demonstrated a state of mind called shock. Statistically speaking, Mr. Howell probably did go through some sort of serious depression some time after this interview. It's possible he didn't, just like it's possible that I can flip a coin and get heads a few dozen times in a row, but realistically speaking it's not unreasonable to guess.
