Answer: B.
Explanation: Option D is discarded because the sentence clearly needs to have its punctuation fixed; option C is wrong because the independent clause "it was unbelievable..." cannot be introduced with a comma, and while options A and B seem viable, the abrupt interruption of the normal flow of the sentence demands the use of dashes.
Answer:
Sentence D is an example of a complex sentence.
Explanation:
A complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. The difference between an independent clause and a dependent one is that the former can stand alone as a sentence as it represents a complete thought. The ungrammaticality of sentence A proves this point. As you can see, without the independent clause (B), the dependent clause (A) does not represent a complete idea, it depends on the main clause to complete its meaning (C).

B) The death penalty should be abolished
C) Because it is cruel, the death penalty should be abolished
