I'm not gonna shed any tears over this dude not being part of the world anymore but the death penalty is always wrong and exist just to satiate some primal bloodlust. I get it with the brother of the victim, I'd probably want the guy brutalized too if I were in his shoes, but a lot of the other post in this topic pretty much reinforce the idea that nothing about capital punishment is based in justice or making the world safer. It is entirely about catharsis and bloodlust.

The world is the exact same as it was when he was alive yesterday. It isn't safer. No victims are restored. The only difference is that a lot of time and money went into executing this man and the world sees no actual benefit.
More time/money would go into keeping him incarcerated for decades.
