If he is released with his true identity, then he wouldn't last 24 hours without being killed. and a society that looks away while vigilante or mob justice is dished out (regardless of whether he deserves it or not), is not healthy society.

It’s exactly that kind of Woolley-headed thinking that helps create the high crime rates and increasing number of innocent victims. If people know they are in for a relative easy time if caught they are more likely to take the risk of offending. That’s not my idea of a healthy society!
