Deterrence is “the inhibition of criminal behavior by fear especially of punishment”. This in easier terms just means that once someone commits a crime, if they are harshly punished for it, other people should then be afraid to commit a crime. Which is related to the idea that it is believed that fear of death deters people from committing crime. Studies of the deterrent effect of the death penalty have been conducted for several years, with varying results.

The reason for this is that few people are executed and so the death penalty is
