Is God sending all of us a message about the death penalty? Did He perform a miracle to save the killer Ms. Pike?

Is God sending all of us a message about the death penalty? Did He perform a miracle to save the killer Ms. Pike? Did God intervene? I believe maybe He did. I do not believe in the death penalty, abortion, or euthanasian, they are all forms of murder and wrong in my Catholic faith opinion. In the Ten Commandments, it tells us to "do not kill." I do not like this nor agree with it. Pike was accused and trialed for the murder of Colleen Slemmer, she tortured and murdered her. It was horrific. Pike was an abused person herself, Pike's childhood was marked by sexual abuse, neglect and rape. She was first raped by her grandmother's boyfriend when she was a small child. Pike was raped again by a neighbor when she was 11. Pike first attempted to take her own life when she was only 12 years old. Then when Pike was 17, she was pulled into the woods and was beaten and again raped by a stranger. She had a horrible life, then did a horrible thing, killing someone else. None of it makes it right, two wrongs do not make a right. Just because she killed someone, it does not make it right for the authorities to kill her. I believe life comes from God, He gives it and He takes it away. We need to respect life from natural conception to natural death, let God handle that, not us humans. It makes me wonder with this entire case with the botched execution, if God was behind this somehow? God does work miracles! We already know that and I share a lot of them here, especially from the Bible from Jesus. Please pray for Ms. Pike and please pray for our country and world to end all death penalties, abortions, and euthanasia. Pray for our world to be prolife! To respect all life and let go and let God!
