It isn't actually about teaching them. Sociopaths and true psychopaths do not learn. They don't grow even when out in society. It is about removing a threat. the issue I find here is that, were one of these individuals breaking into your house, I should hope that none of you would have an issue disposing of them in the most expeditious way possible. Certainly, were one of them to be menacing you or a loved one, you would be well advised to dispose of them.
They don't get better, and in general, they don't feel remorse for what they have done. this isn't about them hating being locked up as much as it is getting rid of a threat that has no purpose save being a threat.
Crimes of passion? Sure, keep the appeals process (though it needs change in a bad way). Premeditated murder by a man who wanted to get rid of someone he hated? Keep hm locked up while he appeals, and maybe for the maximum time. Catching a psychopath after a string of murders: Execute the fucker.
