One of the arguments against capital punishment is that death is too final to be a reasonable punishment for any crime because it cannot be reversed if mistakes are made in the conviction or sentencing processes. But how would that argument be affected if death were no longer final? Would post-mortem cryonic suspension become as standard as mandatory appeals in capital cases? That way, if new evidence surfaces, the convicted person could be revived, retried, and released. Of course, that would add to the cost of the hugely expensive capital punishment system we already have.
