If you want to reduce recidivism you need to use the carrot as well, not just the stick.

Please explain how capital punishment does not reduce recidivism.

Haha, when you out it like that. What I'm saying is the threat does not meaningfully impact the occrance or reoccuramce of crime. The 3 strike laws is more relevant to recidivism. Harsh and doesn't work
