A repeat murderer should be executed, even if he’s a few months short of some arbitrary age of “adulthood”.

Mental disability is NOT an excuse for abjuring the death penalty. Such a one is as likely or more likely to kill again upon release. Mental disability is NOT an excuse to allow him to kill again and again.

I found this interesting: From Wikipedia,
“As of 2024, the only places that still reserve the electric chair as an option for execution are the U.S. states of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky and Tennessee. Electrocution is also authorized in Florida if lethal injection is found unconstitutional.”

(He was, at the time, just seven months out of a reform school stint he had served for murdering a taxi driver at the tender age of 14.)

2 murders before 18 years old. Head Shake.

There’s an old Texas saying “Some people just need kill’n”.
