Now, I'm not that kind of person, but I can see why someone wouldn't actually want someone brutally murdered to "make them feel better". I myself would want them to suffer, sure, but I would not wish them dead. Then I would be no better than them.

You are being a hypocrite. You would wish them to suffer but not killed. Suffering is worse than death, what makes you think it is any better?
The whole argument about you not being better than them by wishing that does not work for me either because you are not wishing for an innocent man to suffer, you are wishing for killer animals to suffer, which is very much a different scenario.
If you truly believe you are a better man, why wish any bad on them at all?
