Two inmates, James Osgood of Alabama and Luigi Mangione, are seeking the death penalty for their crimes. Federal prosecutors have officially filed their intent to seek the death penalty against Mangione.

Osgood, who was sentenced to death for murdering a man during a 1985 robbery, has been pushing for his execution in Alabama. He claims that life in prison without parole is worse than death and has been fighting for years to have his sentence carried out.

On the other hand, Mangione is facing the death penalty for his involvement in a triple homicide. Federal prosecutors have officially filed their intent to seek the death penalty against him, calling his crimes heinous and deserving of the ultimate punishment.

Both cases raise questions about the ethics and effectiveness of the death penalty as a form of punishment. While Osgood and Mangione may seek death as a resolution for their crimes, the decision ultimately rests in the hands of the justice system.
