But I stand by the point that it's not a punishment of any kind. The dead are not suffering. An executed criminal isn't bothered that he has been executed. He isn't anything about anything.

its not just that, for however long he was locked up for he is a focal point for other nutters and was constantly in the press. If he had been executed at the time of the crime, by now people would be saying who the hell was he.
