Do you actually care about what happens to a child raping murderer? Especially one that gloats about their crime, smiles and smugly states that they'd do it again? Punishment should obviously be proportionate to the crime. Like, someone who has stolen a candy bar, shouldn't become a slave in a prison. The former, however, why not? Let them rot and perform slave labor until they keel over.
My 3rd shift relief at my current job used to be a prison guard. He told me about a time that he was transporting a prisoner to therapy, and when the prisoner was asked the question "What is your biggest regret?" the prisoner responded with "I didn't get to finish cutting her head off before the cops busted into the barn.". The prisoner had kidnapped a 12 year old girl, raped her, killed her, and began dismembering her. He beamed with pride over his offense.
While he was transporting this specific prisoner back to his cell, the prisoner kept going into detail about the murder he had committed. Explaining what it felt like. My relief kept telling him to shut up, that he didn't want to hear about it. The prisoner kept on running his mouth, and finally said something like "What you gonna do about it, huh?" and was getting in the guards face. The guard (my relief) said "nothing, unless you make me". They walked a little further, then the prisoner sucker punched the guard. The guard turned around and hit him with his nightstick, breaking the prisoners arm. The prisoner curled up in pain, crying like a baby.
Of course, there was a court hearing over this, and the prisoner tried to say everything he could to make it appear that he was the victim, the son of a bitch. Even though there was video evidence showing EXACTLY what went down. Everyone, including police, told the guard that he should of just killed the scumbag. That no one would have blamed him.
I feel that someone like this prisoner doesn't deserve rehabilitation. Death is even too kind for them.
Those people aren't the ones being talked about since those people aren't getting released anyway so no recidivism there. I do support execution in this case. ---
