Seriously. There's no rehabilitation. There's no point in keeping him locked up for the rest of his life. Best thing you could do for this boy and the victim's family is just euthanize him like a rabid dog

Y'know, I've thought a few times in the recent past, that the elites in our courts decide to try and rehabilitate maniacs like this. When in saner times, if courts wouldn't do so, the people would rise up as a mob and take out someone like this, so they'd never have had the opportunity to kill again.

There is so much crime and cultural destruction that goes unpunished now, that as a society, when we were a more unified and moral people, we simply would not have tolerated.
More than that, our society increasingly rewards and coddles bad behavior, and punishes good and moral behavior. That seems to be the guiding principle of liberalism.

I'd imagine the kid's own family, that reported the crime, recognizes this kid is even a threat to them. And that while they feel sadness over his incarceration, they at least did not cover up for a killer, and enable him to kill more people.
Would that the court had less sympathy for the kid, and more concern for the woman he killed, and the people he will kill in the future, if given the chance.

Are we now "too civilized" to kill a killer?

I've never understood the defense of "mentally unfit to stand trial". Whether the person had full cold-blooded premeditation, or killed someone in a moment of rage, or delusion, they still present the same murderous threat to people around them. And perhaps mentally "unfit" people are even more dangerous, because they can kill unexpectedly, without the normal predictable triggers that could be anticipated would escalate to violence.
