The problem is, there is no way to justly murder criminals "quickly and cheaply". A fair murder of a prisoner means years in expensive high-security prisons while they exhaust a litany of appeals, sometimes with legal defence staff paid for by the government. If you're going to murder someone, it's got to be perfect. So to the cheapest way to do it is lock them up and throw away the key. That's also the quickest way, as that ends the media circus around the case. So your concerns lend themselves only to an argument against capital punishment, IMO.
