If he were truly a reformed person, wouldn't he accept that his sentence is a final example of how being a gang-banger is a dead end?
The world will never know what additional good the people he murdered could have achieved if their lives hadn't been so casually ended by this "former" thug. Bye-bye Tookie.

He goes to the chair screaming, kicking and crying so the Dead End kids no longer see him as a hero.

He may be totally reformed and a decent person now. However he should realize that our society needs the deterrent effect of capital punishment. A truly reformed person would realize and accept that he deserves this fate.
