SLIDE 1 Pitch Martin Luther king once said, the old
law of an eye for an eye will leave the
world blind. This got me thinking
because in many aspects in our society
we are a little bit blind. There is no
justice in killing in the name of
justice. One does not right a wrong by
creating another wrong.
SLIDE 2 Pitch + We are all going to die and we have
introduction no choice in that, but we do get to
choose whether to kill or not and
capital punishment is the most
premeditated murder of all.
**introduction** and I study law at
the university of applied sciences in
Leiden. Today I am taking you
through a journey about the impact of
the death penalty on society and
express my personal opinion on the
subject.
SLIDE 3 Structure of I will start off with a little bit of
pecha kucha information regarding the origin and
progression of the death penalty. Then
we will talk about its impact in our
society. I will introduce you to a
theory of a new system which could
drastically affect the crimes which
punished by the death penalty, and we
will conclude with my personal
opinion on the subject.
SLIDE 4 Early history of Death penalty dates all the way back
death penalty to the 18th century B.C. We are talking
about the era of Babylon. Throughout
the years capital punishment evolved
in many ways, from burning at the
stake, to drowning, crucifixion and
impalement. You name it, it was used
as capital punishment for a variety
crimes.

Netherlands abolished the death
penalty in 1870. There is however one
country left in Europe that still carries
out executions. That country being
Belarus. They carry out their death
penalties by shooting.

SLIDE 7 Not to mention that to this date, there
are governments committing genocide
in the name of capital punishment, a
perfect and recent example being
China. Other examples would be Iran,
Iraq and a lesser known one would be
Nigeria. Moving on to the impact it
has had in our society.
SLIDE 8 Fact Did you know that 1 to 2 in every 10
death row inmates are innocent? 2 in
every 10 people go through something
that is completely irreversible. Many
of whom get exonerated years later. In
my opinion there is absolutely no

are talking about somebody’s life. Is it
ethical to give the government this
