Actually, it would probably cost more to go through the appeal courts and such to mutilate someone then it would be to keep them alive for 60 years or so. I remember reading that, in US states where execution is still a thing, it costs more to kill someone then it does to keep them alive because of the due process involved. I can't imagine that chopping people into pieces would be any less costly.
