Lying to keep people from getting the death penalty

You may view it as noble, but if you feel that you must do it you don't have grounds to complain when others don't come to your aid when you're caught. If you feel that you are morally allowed to do anything to stop the death penalty then, when others who will continue the fight denounce you after you've been caught they are morally allowed to do anything to stop the death penalty and that includes dropping you like a hot potato so that their continuation of the fight is not tainted.

It's a vicious circle, isn't it?
