Which almost without exception makes a lot more sense. Joel Send a noteboard - 23/07/2011 10:04:48 PM
This guy was born in '79, so he'd be in his mid-fifties when released. The caveat to that is that it won't be that hard to prove he's mentally deranged so that they can keep him away from society on MEDICAL grounds indefinitely.

Which is what we do instead of executions.

It just doesn't satisfy that visceral caveman hunger for bloody retribution; on the other hand, recent events give cause to question the wisdom of granting such satisfaction in the first place.
