I'm not quite sure that 30+ years into a life sentence, pushing 65 and having spent the pretty much half my life behind bars that I would find a whole lot of comfort in maybe, just maybe having my sentence overturned and being let free. My life at that point would pretty much be ruined beyond any kind of meaningful repair, and god only knows what kind of mental problems I'd walk away with that I'd be forced to deal with the rest of my life, why bother?
Unless I had any kind of hope of my sentence being overturned relatively quickly (with a few years maybe) I'd probably rather just face the death penalty and call it a day.
