I wonder which execution method is more prone to error, hanging, lethal injection or electric chair?
Hanging has to be by and far #1
You have to get the rope just right to break the neck or they suffocate or get decapitated.
I wouldn't consider decapitation an error!

Yea, isn't that just an added bonus?

The bottom line is that painful/cruel punishment is a deterrent, but only to the degree that such is painful. Our Religion supposedly inflicts the most severe of painful punishment for the most egregious offenses; such being ultimate “eternal punishment” of the most painful sort.
To the degree that a society neglects to impose this deterrent on the guilty it only guarantees that the pain will be inflicted on the innocent. Zero sum game.
An ‘out of the box solution’ may well be the AI based option to essentially CHANGE the mind of a sociopathic individual via Elon’s “Convergence “ wherein AI can be integrated into the Biological ‘Mind’. Of course that is another rabbit hole as the Transhumanist Movement fully embraces that High Tech for the cause of immortality and perception power. Read “The Transhumanist Wager” if one doubts their sincerity as a Human Right.
It’s coming. “The “Kingdom of Heaven on Earth “. Will be accompanied with big time fireworks.

I don't care about method of execution. It's not a deterrent if the guy is executed 35 years after his conviction. He'll probably die of old age first. We need to execute after 6 months for appeals. And as I've said decades ago, I don't care if it's a deterrent. Executing really bad people just gives me a warm feeling.

Years ago the U.S. Army worked all that out. They created a chart with height, weight, and drop distance. When used it breaks the correct vertebra.

but it can go wrong and lead to prolonged suffering.
I’ve never been against some killers having to experience an idea of what their victim(s) likely endured.
I guess I’m just medieval in that respect.

I say a bullet is as cheap as a rope. Wood is expensive to build a gallow.
Nowadays they would say the bruising of the neck violates the killers rights or some crap.
The lethal injections have been halted for failure
Death row inmates cost how much being on death row for 10, 20 years?

Oh hell yes and the relatives must promptly retrieve the body and head or face heavy fines.
