Lets not forget the serial killer Ted Bundy that escaped from prison, and then killed more people after he escaped.

He twice escaped from county jails before his final apprehension in February 1978. After more than a decade of vigorous denials, he eventually confessed to over 30 murders, although the actual total of victims remains unknown. Estimates range from 29 to over 100, the general estimate being 35. Typically, Bundy would bludgeon his victims, then strangle them to death. He also engaged in rape and necrophilia. Bundy was executed for his last murder by the state of Florida in 1989.

One thing is for sure, bundy will never escape and will never kill or rape anyone ever again.
Before he was put to death, he escaped twice. After he was put to death, he has yet to escape again. Unless I am missing something here.
It seems to me that the death penalty is 100% effective in stopping serial killers. After they have been arrested and executed of course. While prison is less effective because they can escape or be released.
If the state would had executed ted bundy the first time, peoples lives would have been saved. Especially the 12 year old girl in florida, who was murdered after bundy escaped from a prison in colorado.
So what do you tell that parents of that girl? If the state would have done its job, she might very well be alive today. But oh well, serial killers have a right to live as well huh.
