Our laws could not possibly be this stoopid, so I am wondering how many reincarnations does that include?

You seem to have momentarily forgotten, that when people scream for justice they often really mean vengeance, and often aren't that smart, at least not while overcome with this sort of emotion.
So a sentence of 897 years, is meant to appease their lust for vengeance, with out however taking the step of killing the asshole and saving the taxpayers' money.
Life is like a dumb cowboy movie sometimes. Which is why I didn't bother reading the link. So I may have missed some juicy tidbits.

how about 25 death penalties? I'd go for the millennium stretch and hope for a pardon. Then again, perhaps after his career, he's all fucked out!

If the rapist's consciousness is moved to a cyborg body, he could be in for a really looooooOOOOoooooong haul.

Capital punishment is far more costly to the taxpayer than life in prison. Millions of dollars per inmate more

And? Death penalty litigation is even more costly than an entire life sentence in cumulative costs.

Shocking - but possibly true ... that is in the surreal country known as the USA
Maybe there is something to stoning people to death after all?

often it is a cash grab, as the inmates are often underpaid workers and someone is getting away with it.

Just a hunch, but I bet he doesn't make it 5 years in general population before he gets taken out by someone who has a grudge against rapists.

Well known - maybe... in some quarters...
Do you have an article or cost comparison handy?

Bodhi's right. It's a well known fact. People who are sentenced to death usually have shit lawyers, but then the constitution guarantees them thousands of hours of appeals with a high quality (expensive) lawyer.

Indeed as you say seems to be generally true in the USA.
https://ballotpedia.org/Fact_check/Is_the_death_penalty_more_expensive_than_life_in_prison
"... found that on average, legal costs in death penalty cases exceeded those in the other cases by $353,105.[24]"...
..."Because the costs associated with capital punishment have not been studied in every state that has the death penalty, and because most of the existing studies are limited in scope, it is not possible to state definitively that the death penalty is always more expensive than life in prison in the United States."
It sure ain't the wildwest of the cowboy movies we grew up with, in more ways than one.
