Would you sentence a kid with down syndrome or mental retardation to death? How about a minor?

He couldn't possibly constitute a future threat to society unless the law assumes prison breaks. If he can't get out, he's obviously not going to kill again. So assuming that, why sentence him to death? Simple. He's bad and needs to die. Remember when I said "vendetta"? Blood for blood. Sounds like vengence to me, and this man is in the hands of the
justice system now, not the vengence system.

What do we plan to acheive? I don't mean to sound condecending, but have you ever worked in an asylum? Do you hold a degree in psychology, psychotherapy, or psychiatry? Do you have any experience in dealing with mental illness such as this man has?

Again, this reasoning screams vengence. So even if, after years of intense therepy, this man regains his sanity, we shouldn't even consider letting him free?
