I agree. I just think we need to be careful about calling for foregoing due process.
Due process is also important in order to make sure that the person’s punishment sticks (not execution as that one obviously sticks). Because you might not care about the rule of law, but the next guy might. Or the judge ruling over the person’s appeal might.
You might not allow them to appeal, but whoever comes next might, and if you didn’t do shit right, they can have all of the charges thrown out. And possibly, rightfully so.
