If it had been up to me, I would have prevented the murderous scum from cheating his sentence, via an early death. He'd be hooked up to life-support and kept artificially “alive”, until he'd served a reasonable number of years. Say, one per death he caused. Oh, and his feeding tube would contain pureed pork.
“The bomber was sentenced to life — then released on “compassionate” grounds, because he was thought to be dying...”
It’s even worse than that, actually. The medical reports claiming that he had 3 months to live were fraudulently manipulated (the report of world-renowned oncologist who examined al-Megrahi was effectively thrown out):
