It may be an insane and stupid thing to do -
but at least it's kind and compassionate.

A cannibalistic double-murderer from Florida could end up walking the streets again — without ever going to trial.
Former Florida State University fraternity member Austin Harrouff, 25, was deemed not guilty by reason of insanity Monday after randomly hacking John Stevens and his wife Michelle Mischon to death with a machete in 2016.
Deputies said they found Harrouff kneeling over Stevens and gnawing on his face, noting that he spit out pieces of flesh before being taken into custody.

Oh jeez, this guy. What a horrorshow.
Obviously gay if he was eating the guy.
Well he does seem a bit crazy
“I blacked out, don’t remember anything.”
It’s Florida..I’m sure something will happen to the guy if he’s allowed to roam free.
At least we can hope.
Gator might get'em.
Wait until he sees the grocery prices
He’ll go right back to chewing on people’s faces again
In the news story, the killer, by his own admission, states that he is sane. That’s good enough for me.
If he does get released, he just may have an “unfortunate accident “…
Typical white boy.
It may be an insane and stupid thing to do -

I know nothing about this case, but was the cannibal a regular churchgoer and a perfect person prior to this horrendous act.
I suspect the opposite and DA’s had been letting him free for many years.
Sorry to have to bring everyone down again but as I’ve been saying the “system of justice” is no longer dispensing, well, justice.
There is a book Payback The Case For Revenge by Thane Rosenbaum (2013 hardcover).
Published synopsis:
“Revenge, Rosenbaum argues, is not the problem. It is, in fact, a perfectly healthy emotion. Instead, the problem is the inadequacy of lawful outlets through which to express it. He mounts a case for legal systems to punish the guilty commensurate with their crimes as part of a societal moral duty to satisfy the needs of victims to feel avenged. Indeed, the legal system would better serve the public if it gave victims the sense that vengeance was being done on their behalf.”
Merriam Webster:
The quality of being just, impartial, or fair
The establishment or determination of rights according to the rules of law or equity
Conformity to this principle or ideal : Righteousness
Encyclopedia Britannica Online:
Justice: In philosophy, the concept of a proper proportion between a person’s deserts (what is merited) and the good and bad things that befall or are allotted to him or her. Aristotle’s discussion of the virtue of justice has been the starting point for almost all Western accounts.
This is very personal to me. I worked with Michelle at Northwestern Mutual in South Florida, and she was a joy to work with. I didn’t know John except for a few Christmas parties. This kid should NEVER get out of a mental institution.
RIP Michelle and John, justice was not served today
Did he have a hammer?
Not funny
I quite agree. He should never see the outside of either a mental institution or prison ever for the rest of his horrible life.
I’m sorry for your loss. Prayers for the family and friends.
Bath Salts?
Not only that two and almost three people were murdered. It pays to have a rich father.
