My system would be based on a point system. As a person commits crimes they would accumulate points when convicted. Each conviction would have a point value attached. These points would start at day 1 of life.
There would be a defined number of high security prison beds assigned based on the population. Points would accumulate for all crimes but the felon would have to commit violent crimes to be eligible for the death penalty. The people with the most points would be bumped off the end.
So people who commit crimes in prison could also run the risk of execution. Also it is only likely that the worst criminals would be executed regardless of race or wealth.
The death penalty should be federal only. So points would be compared to all felons across the nation.
Finally there should be no such thing as attempted murder. If a person attempts to kill someone and is convicted of it the victims good fortune shouldn't benefit the felon. They should be charged as if they we successful in killing the victim.
