I hope they house him with the general population in prison

He needs to be in the general population of the nastiest prison we have...wherever that is. I guess that wouldn't be Gitmo, huh?

[HiTech RedNeck]

he ran through a list of people he wanted to think

duh

[Pajamajan]

"He needs to be in one of the nastiest prison's we have....that wouldn't be Gitmo"

No, not club Gitmo. However, we could turn him over to Zarchawi and his Al Queda co-horts.

When they make their demands, we could say "no", you keep him, we don't want him, do what you want.

[HiTech RedNeck]

They'd forthwith recruit him to the Religion of Pieces (tm)

[jayhorn]

Note to voters in his home state. You need to put a measure on the ballot making the death penalty retroactive from now on.

Silliness. Even Scalia would jump at the chance of knocking that hanging curve out of the park.

[Pajamajan]

Oh, so you think it's just fine the BTK is still breathing?

[Pajamajan]

"They'd forthwith recruit him"

You're right, he'd enjoy it, fit right in with the Islamofacists, he'd probablly end up running the place

. All the more reason he should be made to assume room temperature.

[HiTech RedNeck]

There must be a pool somewhere on the date that BTK will get BTK'd.

[Pajamajan]

LOL!

[ukman]

Can't understand why you Americans think a quick and painless death by execution is appropriate for this unsavoury character. Incarceration without any hope of release, and constant fear of much worse physical pain at the hands of other inmates, or lifelong solitary confinement, is a far worse fate. The important thing is surely that he doesn't get out again.

[HiTech RedNeck]

A cuckoo like him will probably regard prison as just another curiosity.

[Pajamajan]

"Can't understand why you Americans think a quick and painless death by execution is appropriate for this unsavory character?"

As long as he draws breath there's a chance he could escape and hurt someone else. I suggest you read what this "man" did. He makes Jack the Ripper look like one of the Teletubbies. He's pure evil.

I look at the death penalty the same way as I view the necessity of having to put down a mad dog. It has to be done for safety of the community.

Why anyone would want a monster like this kept alive at tax payer expense is beyond me. Why should he get to experience any pleasure at all?-Why should he get to smile, enjoy eating a meal, the sunshine, anything at all when he so brutally took that away from his victims? (Heck the BTK gets pleasure from drawing ropes and nooses on pictures in magazines. )

He's not remorseful, he's proud of himself. So he gets to eat, drink and defecate at taxpayer expense.I'd rather see him sent on to final judgment.

If it's so awful to stay alive in prison, as opposed to being executed, how come death row inmates make appeal, after appeal, after appeal, trying to stay alive?

[beavus]

And his deluded Lutheran pastor says he still will be forgiven by God!

If so, God is diminished by it.

This man should be kept alive, and his victims' families in charge of his daily activities. They should retain Clive Barker for ideas.

[Non-Sequitur]

I don't know if he necessarily stopped his killing in 1994. I just don't think he confessed to any post-DP killings.

No evidence has come to light indicating any murders after 1986 I believe.

[Non-Sequitur]

Note to voters in his home state. You need to put a measure on the ballot making the death penalty retroactive from now on.

Sure. Just as soon as 2/3rds of the rest of you amend the Constitution to allow ex post facto laws.

[Non-Sequitur]

Make that 3/4ths of you.

[Recovering Hermit]

Why does everybody think he'll have it so hard in general population?

I never said that...but he won't have any chance of being "Dahmered" in solitary confinement.

[ExSoldier]

Yeah, funny how that works, isn't it? I have seen the personal benefit of this right on several occasions. Now with the expanded "Castle Doctrine" here in Florida, look for crime to drop further and faster.

[bill1952]

As long as a lawyer draws breath, there is hope of release.
And we have to put him up for life and pay for it.

When the dead are scattered like leaves, it isn't right that he should use the same air as his victims did.

[Non-Sequitur]

I heard this morning that Rader is going to be taken to the Correctional Facility at El Dorado where he will be held under maximum security. For him that will mean an 8 by 10 cell where he will be kept for 23 hours per day. One hour per day his arms and legs will be shackled and he will spend an hour in the exercise yard, still chained, watched by up to 4 guards. If there truly is a fate worse than death then Rader's future is about as close as they come.

Oh, and he'll have the Carrs as neighbors, but they won't be communicating.
