On the other hand given that death is known not to end one's existence, it suddenly feels more akin to exile, so it seems like it would be much more prevalent. Ideally you want legal punishment to either rehabilitate the offender or isolate them from the society if rehabilitation is deemed impossible. Death sentence now serves as a cheaper alternative to a life in prison.
I suppose that might also depend on how afterlife is like. Like is it basically just cryo freezing without having to keep the body cold.
