However if it comes down to me thinking death I would prefer an execution as like they did their victim but it would have to be overwhelming evidence and not a reasonable doubt type decision. An eye for an eye and a fist for a fist.
You are right I am sure in that a couple of them felt so terrible that death was what they wanted, but I doubt that is the majority. Most of them file appeal after appeal to prlong their life that it is pathetic. That one Chinese guy who is tottally toying with the courts to prolong his execution date comes to mind.

He and his buddy Leonard Lake (and Lake's ex-wife) did some evil stuff.

He was arrested at a Hardware Store right next to where I was selling office supplies in South San Francisco.
