If a person facing execution avows himself to be reformed and is sincerely prepared to repay with the "equivalent" of his life but without society itself breaking the "Thou shall not kill" code, he could be allowed the alternative of volunteering to risk his life in life-saving operations such clearing land mines - contributing in the more extreme situations where the risks cannot be further lessened despite training, devices, dogs, etc. There would be a probability of being killed rising with increasing participation in such high-risk life-saving operations. The sentence need not be indefinite - contributing to the probable saving of x number of lives should suffice. Rather than kill or not kill, society's debate would be over the value of x. Those for a harsh approach might go for a high, (perhaps unachievable) number; on the other hand, risking one's life for others even once is a valuable contribution. But it would be democratic to implement a median value of x arrived at by the population. This approach is somewhat an extension of the concept of hard labor but here the person repays with a closer "equivalent" than just work. There would be no conflict of taking jobs that others might require. The sincerity of the person is put to the test; we might avoid killing really reformed individuals.
