The colonists sometimes put murderers and traitors staked to a poll at low tide area so they could watch the high tide come in to drown them. Let the fish and birds eat after so you have No mess and a quick death once it comes but they would have hours to watch their death approach even if not in pain. Of course you have to do it during warm months or they'll die from the cold.
Anyway it saves money from burials and even bullets and no one has to stain the soul by being the one to kill them. Just let nature do it.
