Oh yeah, I entirely agree that he, whatever he did, should be held in a secure facility so that his offending behaviour can be addressed safely. But prisons are for punishment, it's possible (although I have no idea) that whilst he's under his condition, whatever it is, he won't really understand why he's in there the same way we would if we were in there. A secure therapeutic community would help him to come to terms with whats he's done and perhaps make the punishment part of his sentence more effective. Anyway, just one of my brain pharts being vented
