It would benefit society MUCH more to come up with preventative measures as opposed to the reactive measures we are used to today in the justice system. Somebody commits a crime and we just react... In a world of make-believe we can just react to the crime and place people in jail and act as though no more crime will be committed. In reality if we just keep reacting then the problem will not fade as clearly evidenced across every spec of history.

There isn't much in the way of incorporating preventative measures into general society, unfortunately, mainly due to how unobserved that avenue has been along with how stuck we are in our current concept of justice.

The death sentence doesn't get rid of crime; it instead kills of the very brain that needs to be researched on to further understand, as absolute as possible, the 'why' of such occurrence that led to the penalty in the first place. To focus effort where effort is most needed, not just most practical, is to progress towards the beneficial.
