Anything that speeds it up or makes it cheaper makes it more inaccurate. 26 years is too long? What's not? 20 years? 16? 10? Even shortened to that length, it will cost millions of dollars up front and continue to be a non-deterent.
What I think is a disservice to the victims' families is convincing them of the myth that the execution will make them feel better. Because it simply doesn't. That, combined with exactly what scaeagles says (regarding being made to re-visit the ugliness over and over due to the necessity of appeals), and I find little to no justification for the death penalty.
