This report goes ahead to give the recommendation which can be Economic studies "find each
execution results in three fewer murders, five fewer homicides, between three and 25 fewer
murders with an average of 14, between8-28 murders with an average of 18, and even 150 fewer
murders." The death penalty does have deterrent effect. To say otherwise would be to admit that
potential murderers are not rational (and thus admit that they should not be subject to criminal
justice at all)
