Sounds like the problem is the LEOs and those carrying out the sentences than the actual method of punishment. It's like in the movies when an evil overlords lieutenant fucks up and the overlord says "this is the price for failure" and shoots a totally reliable person who had nothing to do with the situation. Instead of blaming the deterrent, there needs to be some serious rethinking going on in the justice departments.
