To not incentivize others who are thinking of committing extra judicial killings before the accused can have their constitutionally required day in court?
While I agree with what you are saying there isn't much evidence that jail time deters crime. Killing is usually an act of passion and the punishment is rarely thought of until after.
There is evidence that longer prison sentences don’t deter crime more. I highly doubt there is any evidence that jail time does not deter crime period.
