You are discussing how thing are in the US system. I'm not US. But...the issues you're raising are not justification for a death penalty. They are just more flaws in your system which should be corrected.
By the way, if your system already supports the death penalty, why is a murderer freed at all?
There are mistakes... in prosecution of justice and innocent people are convicted of murder. That is the overarching reason for not supporting the death penalty.
In cases of undeniable proof, I think those people would not usually be released to kill again. Even in such cases, for example cases like Ted Bundy, evidence is not enough to justify the death penalty. Google 10 Rillington Place, for evidence even a "serial killer" can be wrongly convicted.

No the point made that the prison service is not only charged with preventing murder, but also with reabilitation of the prisoner wether it's grand theft, larceny or tax evasion. all are to be reabilitated before their paroll is up.
However if the prison syteme can not prevent murder from being done in their own place WELL?
No matter where you are if a murderer decides to kill an innocent person they should pay the price, if you think it is being cared for by the country that is your oppinion I say death.
There are mistakes when a murderer decides to kill an innocent person that to me is a mistake the murderer had a choice the innocent victim did not.
If as you say undeinable proof is not enough to justify the death penalty.
However murderers need no proof or exuse at all.
While the innocent victims are still dead.
