Killing someone for revenge is wrong and it doesnt prevent other criminals commiting crimes

Who mentioned revenge? The guy is a danger to our society. He was willing to commit genocide on as great a scale as possible. I fail to see how he can ever become a decent member of any society.
As for being watched by MI5... well that's great. Not only will he be an expensive drain on our security services, but what if he manages to get away? Do we trust that his jail term will have rehabilitated him?
True, we don't "do" the death penalty; but in my opinion that's a pity in this case. I wonder how a similar offender would be treated in his own country?
