More than 100 of California's Death Row inmates have died in the last 40 years. Barely one in 10 were executed.
But $1,612 a year might be eliminated from the annual cost, assuming prisoners who could never be paroled are not enrolled in rehabilitation programs. However, at an annual cost of $137,102, a prisoner who sits on death row for 20 years could cost taxpayers a total of $2,742,040 in that time. Adding to the total cost of LWOP is that the California's prison population is aging.
