Anyone asking for death for this scum should take another look at that super-max link. It seems to me to be an environment that would force depression and neural decay on nearly any human being forced to live in it. I have no doubt that he would have greatly preferred death to the decades long near death hell of that kind of isolation.

BTW, I have no doubt that any sensible warden will refuse press interviews or any other contact with him indefinitely.

Yes. These Supermax prisons enforce isolation, as much as possible. That means the prisoner is often disoriented, not even knowing where the sky is, what day it is, or what time it is.

No doubt many prisoners do go stark-raving mad.

Well, until some federal judge somewhere orders the Warden to allow such. I'm sure CBS, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, and others are preparing their briefs as we type.
