We would obviously have to significantly streamline the process, such that people are executed within 6 months of being caught or so.
This is one of the biggest hurdles, IMO. How do you significantly streamline the process without destroying due process? In the US, this would require a complete overhaul of the criminal justice system to be feasible.
Because in most cases it’s very clear what happened and the court case is most legal about all the legal quibbles and mitigating factors and etc.
If you don’t have eyewitness evidence or similar, sure don’t kill them, if they’re guilty they’re likely to commit another crime soon and then you’ll get them.
If you do, I don’t really care about the quibbles.
I’d want something much stronger than eyewitness testimony. It’s much too unreliable for killing people without other forms of evidence corroborating it.
