Corrections/nuances:
Portugal did abolish the death penalty in the 1800s. It also abolished the death penalty in 1976 because it had been reinstated for military purposes during WW1. Deathpenaltyinfo.org recognizes 1976 as the formal date. The point of that segment, and I will be clearer about assumptions/definitions on screen in future videos for sure so that’s my bad, is that a new constitution after the fall of an authoritarian leader has been associated with the formal abolition of the death penalty. That happened after Salazar with the new constitution. Japan also signed a new constitution, but with no formal abolition.
Researchers found (source in description) that lynching predicts modern executions, but when you account for slavery - lynching does not, but slavery does. There’s a lot of variance in these studies, and the level that injustices in the past have an impact on today is not something I, a “professional” youtuber in a bedroom, am going to be able to explain well. Adverbs like “intimately” do not help because that’s vague and unclear writing. I do think this can all be true (would like to hear other’s thoughts) while it also still being important to point out that this makes the US different from Japan.
As of right now, I don’t know how I stand on the death penalty. My instinctual feeling when someone kills 31 people by burning them alive like I mention at the end is yes. As it would be if my family was brutally murdered by someone. That being said, the non zero probability, especially in Japan with its high prosecution rate, makes the risk quite uncomfortable that I start thinking - better not. But then I can think that, that makes me some moral saint - that I would not take that chance with the death penalty - but I and the majority of the world would take that chance with locking someone in a cell for extended periods of time. So I’m not sure my morality is consistent. Long story short, I don’t really know.
Discrimination in capital punishment was explicitly written in many states’ laws during slavery. Black people - (whether slaves or not) - faced the death penalty for crimes that were not even be eligible for death if committed by a white person.

You have been condemned to ultimate uncertainty
as any living being on earth.
@@maxmeier532 You are given the luxury of focusing 100% on that uncertainty and nothing else that could resemble joy, hope or fulfilment
Oh, the poor, misunderstood criminals! How utterly tragic that they are deprived of the luxury of a handy calendar reminder for their impending execution. Who could bear the heartache of such an oversight? Truly, Japanese society’s blatant disregard for their need to meticulously plan such significant life events is beyond comprehension. It’s not as if these convicts took the effort to book an appointment with their victims, thoughtfully ensuring they were fully aware of the exact date and time they’d be brutally slaughtered. "Excuse me, would next Tuesday at 3 PM suit you for your untimely demise?"
Really, imagine the shock and horror these CONVICTS must endure, facing their end without a day marked in their otherwise busy calendars. How inhumane to rob them of the opportunity to prepare like it's a dentist appointment. Truly, it's society that has failed them, not the other way around.
Japanese laws, shockingly, don't bend over backwards to pamper and coddle criminals the way Western legal systems do. Imagine that, a legal system that prioritizes actual justice over the comfort of those who have wreaked havoc on innocent lives. Heaven forbid! What a monstrous concept, that the focus should be on the victims who will never see another tomorrow, rather than on the sensitivities of those who brought about their untimely end.
So, spare me the melodramatic sob stories and crocodile tears. Don’t project your self-righteous, virtue-signaling nonsense onto other countries that don’t coddle convicts. If only you could channel all this empathetic energy into supporting victims rather than lionizing those who wronged them. But no, please, do go on about the grave injustice of not catering to the meticulous schedules of those who have caused unimaginable suffering. After all, it’s far more important to maintain the pristine image of moral superiority, isn’t it?

what the heck is that death rooom contraption, multiple rooms, a spinning religion panel, a moral dilemma button, feels like an escape room straight out of zero escape
They have the delayed multi buttons because executions are seen as an unclean act that would taint the soul so to keep from making someone become unclean spiritually they make it ambiguous as to who did it
I assume that the religious statue panel didn't literally rotate, it was probably just that way for making the animation look nice.
A staff member would probably place the appropriate figure in the altar earlier that morning based on what religion was on file for the prisoner. To change the statue, they'd probably remove the statue and get the other statue from a storage cupboard.
@@d3thkn1ghtmcgee74 It is a common feature in a lot of execution methods. Firings often had a blank or dummy round handed out amid the live cartridges so that each shooter could think that might not have fired a fatal shot.

From time immemorial societies have removed those they know are a serious danger, it's truly astonishing how many people today can be deluded into wanting to keep them around in any capacity. How many lives would be saved if judges were tried as accessories to any crimes the killers they let out commit in the future?

Stop wasting time talking about unimportant things (the one that k'd 7) and focus on what matters: the innocent who are wrongly convicted.

If you ignorantly believe "innocent people are never convicted", then you aren't qualified to talk about this.

The part that kills you is painful, and if the parts that put you to sleep and numb you aren't enough, or lacking in general, you end up in agony but unable to move as the muscle relaxants tend to work.
@@cam609lee Lethal Injection is a multi-step process where they first sedate the prisoner, then give them a numbing serum, and then finally the lethal injection. The issue arises when either of the previous two are not done properly. This can leave the victim aware of what is happening, and the lethal injection is not painless. There is at least one account from a survivor of a botched injection. He said it was as if liquid fire was being put into his veins and was being chocked at the same time.
@@cam609lee The whole issue with lethal injections is that companies aren't willing to sell the desired chemicals to produce the injection and that many medical practitioners aren't willing to be the ones to administer it. As such, improvisation takes place, substitute ingredients are found that don't tick all of the requirements, personal without all the needed skills gets put in charge.

You still want me to feel guilty that the US and Japan use the death penalty?
There’s almost always some case that can make anyone feel good in the government killing someone for them. Point is, that system has to have delimitations and rules, and even pretending you can make every lawmaker or voter agree on where to draw the lines, you’d still end up with misshaps, only misshaps in imprisonment can be worked around way better than the finality of death. And the way that the japanese system handles the quirks in implementation, only makes those misshaps seem worse (like the wrongfully accused guy who spent 30+ years).

How is this a problem with the penalty and not the judicial system? Seems like the examples you're giving are ones where innocent people were sentenced. That's pretty flawed.
You basically answered your own question about Japan's homicide rate being low. Japan is almost entirely Japanese. That is why the homicide rate and violent crime rate is much lower. Making a country more "diverse" changes that. There is more conflict (from all sides) and more crime. That's just a fact.
Why is this considered brutal?

Do people not understand the concept of false imprisonment? Do people not understand how important it is to humanely treat criminals? I'm always reminded of the following quote whith situations like this:
“A society should be judged not by how it treats its outstanding citizens but by how it treats its criminals.”

@@j.burgess4459 that's what I'm thinking too
For the falsely condemned, yes. For the guilty, no.
They even turned the death penalty into a game show
I imagine the reason the death penalty was abolished in those countries with authoritarian regimes was because they massively abused it; so when the regime was ousted, the people were never willing to take that risk again. Of course this ousting never fully happened in Japan, and you could argue the country is to this day quite authoritarian in many ways.
The question is more complicated in countries that have always been fairly democratic: there, I feel, it becomes more a question of conservatives against progressives; which is shown nicely in the US too.
The risk of it being abused is always too high. Never give a state too much power, ever.
You're right at least in Spain. Most sentenced to death in its final years were political activists and that kind of unjustified stuff.
@@Marconius6 Yeah, although here in the States, it's a bit more complicated. While it is largely a conservative vs liberal thing, it isn't a universal one, as there are a lot of conservatives, generally the ones with libertarian tendencies who do oppose the death penalty on principle, plus other conservatives who want it narrowed, even if not in favor of abolition. Our conservatism has always had and does have a significant skepticism toward government power so the lines on the right often get blurred on this issue. It did use to be politically toxic to oppose it(big reason why Bush, Sr. won in '88) but the country is much more libertarian on criminal justice than it used to be and that's shown on the right too.
@@SupweIt says on the internet that the last people sentenced to death in Spain were part of terrorist bands that killed two policemen

I am more concerned with Japans juridical system and their unusually high conviction rate than I am concerned with them having death penalty.
Theoretically the tax payers should not be burdened with the life support of people that can never safely be let into society. My only problem with capital punishment is a distrust in the juridical system and potential tyranny that can exploit it, so from this perspective I would rather see an overhaul of Japans archaic court system than a complete abandonment of capital punishment.
Controversial opinion: I don't think the Death Penalty is bad, its just been done badly, especially with our most recent examples being in the US, where everything that can be done wrong, will be done wrong.
"Americans will always do the right thing, after exhausting every other option."
There is no way to do it well, though, unless you consider the possibility of the executed actually having been innocent as acceptable, you're gonna have to put in so many checks that keeping someone imprisoned for life ends up way cheaper (with the added benefit of still being able to release them if you made a mistake). This is ALREADY the case in the us, death penalty DOES cost more, and STILL its not enough checks cuz innocent ppl have been executed there before. It just doesn't work

Facts
I do understand you emotionally, but I’d rather you paid attention to the differences between generosity and human rights. The former is random feeling whereas the latter is a systematic theory that depends on deductive reasoning. The most typical example of deductive reasoning is math. If x and y are lines which are parallel, then they don’t cross. Here, you can’t ask why because it is something called an axiom. In deductive logic, you can prove many properties of lines or triangles but the absence of crossing points. This is true to human rights, too. Axiom; you have rights which can’t be alienated from you. See? Perhaps, you may think like this; then let’s change the axiom! Good news. It’s already tried by some enthusiastic people, namely Hitler, Stalin,Mao Zedong, Xi Jinping, and Meiji government (see the first article of their constitution. It was an alternative axiom).
Do you think it sounds like religion? Surprisingly you’re right. Human rights is religion by its definition according to Harari, the author of Sapience, which I think is very interesting and provocative.

Norway didn't have a death penalty but they allowed it only for Quisling and some other traitors in the aftermath of WW2. It wasn't fully abolished until 1979 where it was technically legal for the military to execute people in some cases, but the last execution was in 1948 in the before mentioned aftermath of WW2. I think the conversation for allowing it again reopened to potentially execute Anders Behring Breivik, a man who massacred 77 people and detonated a bomb in the Norwegian capital in 2011. The fact that he is still alive is wild, but im also slightly glad that our state didn't abandon their morals for the sake of one man.

I understand you.

I would review the same uncertainty in the US system that would undermine most of this video
Race and the death penalty don't seem to be linked given that it was prolific in the UK prior to the colonising of the Americas.
1: The United Kingdom was created in with the Acts of Union in 1801, 194 years after the creation of the Jamestown Colony.
2: Public Humiliation was a common punishment in Medieval England, but it was used as a means of Racial Control after British Colonists began importing african slaves.
@@ImperatorZor
And? Thanks for correcting on the UK, but the meaning can still be inferred and so the point still stands.
The practice preceded the Americas and the taking of slaves from Africa. So what's the relevance of mentioning race in this context when the topic is largely focused on a racially homogeneous country like Japan?
The genetic fallacy doesn't benefit the topic.
@@ImperatorZor lmao sure the modern UK didn't exist back then but England has been around for thousands of years using the death penalty. It has nothing to do with race.
You seem to have made a false affirmation at 3:38 when you said that Portugal's New State Regime had death penalty, well it did not, because the death penalty was abolished in 1852 for political crimes, 1867 for civil crimes and 1911 for military crimes.
Love your videos btw. Keep it up!
I think it’s more nuanced than both our sides. The 1976 constitution formally abolished the death penalty entirely. In military context it was still permitted, although sparingly I imagine, in the 1900s
I am baffled by people who think life in prison is less of a punishment than the death penalty. If given the choice I would choose to die over spending life in prison.
depends on the country tbh... some countries prisons are worse than others...

Oh, the poor, misunderstood criminals! How utterly tragic that they are deprived of the luxury of a handy calendar reminder for their impending execution. Who could bear the heartache of such an oversight? Truly, Japanese society’s blatant disregard for their need to meticulously plan such significant life events is beyond comprehension. It’s not as if these convicts took the effort to book an appointment with their victims, thoughtfully ensuring they were fully aware of the exact date and time they’d be brutally slaughtered. "Excuse me, would next Tuesday at 3 PM suit you for your untimely demise?"
Really, Imagine the shock and horror these CONVICTS must endure, facing their end without a day marked in their otherwise busy calendars. How inhumane to rob them of the opportunity to prepare like it's a dentist appointment. Truly, it's society that has failed them, not the other way around.
Japanese laws, shockingly, don't bend over backwards to pamper and coddle criminals the way Western legal systems do. Imagine that, a legal system that prioritizes actual justice over the comfort of those who have wreaked havoc on innocent lives. Heaven forbid! What a monstrous concept, that the focus should be on the victims who will never see another tomorrow, rather than on the sensitivities of those who brought about their untimely end.
So, spare me the melodramatic sob stories and crocodile tears. Don’t project your self-righteous, virtue-signaling nonsense onto other countries that don’t coddle convicts. If only you could channel all this empathetic energy into supporting victims rather than lionizing those who wronged them. But no, please, do go on about the grave injustice of not catering to the meticulous schedules of those who have caused unimaginable suffering. After all, it’s far more important to maintain the pristine image of moral superiority, isn’t it?
What about the innocents? the false execution rate in America is 1/25.
Finally someone reasonable in this comment section. Why do they want every country to have their failed legal systems that let criminals loose on the streets? And have the same legal system that cares more about criminals than law abiding citizens or the victims!
@@rinaldskalvis5071 The death penalty isn't especially effective at stopping crime compared to life imprisonment. In addition, life imprisonment can be reversed, thus allowing us to free the innocent. We can't exactly revive the dead.
@@jax5683
Like I already said, you’re arguing against the death penalty, but my point was that if we do have it, why should convicts get a heads-up on their execution? It’s not like their victims got a ‘friendly reminder’ before they were murdered.

This video is misleading because it only focuses on the "developed" world. AKA, a very small portion of the world. It tries to make it sound like the death penalty is wrong, even though it is the defacto for most countries. But for some reason the video ONLY blames the US and Japan.

Where does the idea of death penalty being inhumane even come from? Who and on what basis other than emotional argued against it?
Why are you talking about “black lynchings” in regard to the U.S. death penalty? The U.S. death penalty is not “intimately connected with its history of racial discrimination and enslavement”. If that were the case, then everything would be connected to it and no state in the U.S. would still have the death penalty. That statement smacks of critical race theory, where everything is about race in the U.S. What have they done to our youth in our classrooms? Why would you even bring that up? Isn’t that leading to the notion that if you are for the death penalty in the U.S., then you are racist…if they are “intimately connected” as you say?
It’s a legitimate question with a legitimate concern. This isn’t just about your statement even if it were partially true, it’s your entire approach to it. EVERY human being on this entire planet has an ancestors who were slaves, every single one of us. Even isolated tribes that have “never” been in contact with other human beings? Yes, of course. The entire world’s history of slavery is another topic all together.
That leaves me with only two questions:
1. How is the death penalty in the U.S. “intimately connected” with “it’s history of racial discrimination and enslavement”?
2. How is the execution carried out? You came close, but never explained it. You skipped it after the three switch description. Thanks, now I almost know.
well, he says there is a trapdoor connected to one of the three switches, and earlier in the video, there is an image with the trapdoor open...
as for everything else, you're absolutely correct, people really like to point at maps and say "There is an increase in the popularity of [blank] in the Bible Belt, that means it's an evil practice only done by racists!!"
Thanks for your comment. I was getting irritated with the video 🫤
Maybe not nationwide, but the death penalty (well the prison system in general) in specifically the Deep South was absolutely connected to racial discrimination. These are the same places that kept slavery going for like 80 years after the Civil War.
- "The first recorded execution in the new colonies was that of Captain George Kendall in the Jamestown colony of Virginia in 1608. Kendall was executed for being a spy for Spain."
- "In 1619, the first captive Africans were brought via Dutch slave ship to Point Comfort (today Fort Monroe in Hampton, Virginia), thirty miles downstream from Jamestown, Virginia. They had been kidnapped by Portuguese slave traders."
The first execution in America was carried out on a white man 11 years before the first African slaves had even arrived on North American soil. How droll. Thank you for commenting, it was bothering me too.
The production value of these videos is unreal. The box diorama with the hands pulling it apart, is very creative, and not in a way that distracts from the grim reality of events, but emphasizes it. Do you intend to bring that creativity to these videos when you make them, or do the ideas come to you as you work?
Was the police officer that kept the man in prison for over 30 years given the death penalty?
Did he even get in trouble?
It's important to mention that while hanging appears more gruesome, lethal injection is just as inhuman. It's a combination of three chemicals : one that paralyzes, one that puts the victim into a coma, and one that kills. The one that puts you into a coma can and has failed.
Imagine if you could feel yourself dying, but could not react, as all of your muscles are paralyzed.
All death sentences are inhuman.
The use of the word "Evil" in your title strongly suggests a moral imperative, perhaps revealing a strongly held personal opinion that is contrary to the ethos of objective documentary filmmaking. Or do you use this word just for the clicks?

Bringing back the death penalty has consistent majority public support even in places like the UK that have abolished it. (P.s. that graph you showed is inaccurate, the UK didn't completly surrender its sovereign right to use the death penalty until the Cameron govt refused to renew the UKs death penalty exception with the ECtHR - so the death penalty was abolished in totality in the 2010s not in 1965 when it stopped being used for murder. After the abolition for murder it was retained for treason and arson in a royal dockyard, as well as some military offences.)
No, it was Blair in 1998 who signed and ratified Protocol 13 to the ECHR, which prohibits the death penalty under all circumstances.
@amritlohia8240 maybe I'm wrong on that, maybe it was Blair rather than Cameron, but it definelty wasn't 1965 as the graph shows.
Also it was retained for murder beyond 1965 in one part of the UK, namely Northern Ireland. The last man sentenced to death there was in 1971. But it was commuted to imprisonment.

99.6% 'GUILTY' rate in japanese courts too. (no jury system)
My understanding is that they do have a Jury in Japan. Except that the jury just assumes the prosecutor did their due diligence and did not make any mistakes and got the correct personal
They have a jury system. The high guilty rate is due to practice done by the prosecutors only hand picking cases that they can win in court.
@@noneofyourbizness if you watch the video you’ll see the system explained.
@@rons4620 It's not really a jury system in a sense that would be recognisable to common law systems. There's a panel of judges and a few of them happen to not be professionals. But lawyers have no capacity to challenge or scrutinise them, nor are they excluded from elements of the proceedings that could be prejudicial. It's just a judge panel that is typical of civil law systems, except they outsource a few of the members to the public.
US federal prosecutors have a 95% conviction rate
