This is incredibly interesting. You should consider doing your own AMA.

Thank you for your work and for doing this AMA. I had a close friend murdered at 19, in 1994, and his killer is still on Death Row in Florida. I found my friend’s parents and reached out to them in 2019 (25th anniversary) to let them know their son wasn’t forgotten. I used to be 100% for the death penalty, an eye for an eye as I had a front row seat to brutality. But almost 30 years later, as I’m in my late 40’s, I’ve changed my mind. Excess cost of housing a death row inmate vs. life in prison, endless appeals, strained public defenders going against states with limitless resources, etc. But what gets me most is the trauma and anguish the victims families have to relive when they get the call that X killer is to be executed in 6 months. Then delays, appeals, reliving it over and over again. I just can’t imagine what the victims families have to deal with. They’ve suppressed and processed their grief for 20-30yrs and now have to relive it (like a commenter says below). I think the death penalty being a deterrent is a failed social experiment and a costly one at that.
Again, thank you for what you do.

I’m sure you’ve answered before that everyone wears condoms, but how do you clean “down there” between bookings so things stay smelling fresh as a daisy?
