Death is a painless solution, while living as a former pig in a maximum security prison is going to leave him with PTSD, anxiety, fear, and hopefully plenty of physical abuse. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 10 child comments replies: [–] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 46 points 2 years ago (1 child) Maybe, but your idea for a punishment is a total pipe dream. He will not get a significant sentence....if he sees any punishment at all. In the grand scheme of things a family member of this kid finding him and shooting him in the face as his family watches is simply more likely to happen. Also probably not going to happen but....whatever.

To have that shell of an abuser go out into the world, hating the people around him for not understanding that his reality was enforcing the distinction between the elite alpha wolf first responders in life and the glue sniffing degenerate civilians that need to be protected from themselves - except now he's not privileged. He's now one of the people he has grown to despise and he can't stand it. He grows resentful and eventually kills himself and/or those around him. permalink fedilink source parent [–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago (1 child) All at the tax payers expense. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] GeneralVincent@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago (1 child) I've always heard that the death penalty costs more than life in prison https://www.seattleu.edu/artsci/departments/criminal/crime-and-justice-research-center/death-penalty-cost-study/ permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Syrc@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago That’s more an issue of the court/justice system rather than a resource one.
