This feels worse somehow. With the death penalty there is a finality to sentencing, these people are stuck on an ever speeding treadmill of despair chasing hope like it’s a carrot on a string. Even if they get out, due to the conditionality of their original sentence, they can be thrown right back in with the flick of a pen. Like Sisyphus to his boulder these people are bound to sadness perpetually stuck in a state of fear.
Don’t ppl on death row not get an official date for their execution? It was my understanding that it can come at anytime unless they’re currently going through appeals. At least in the US but I’m not 100%
