Maybe feel some sincere sense of regret. If not, then at least he won't be able to viciously take another life. And if he WAS in control of his actions, then HE is responsible for the pain that his family is suffering, not society. This is especially the case for any criminal who has committed a pre meditated murder.
This is something which I would expect a "person of faith" to say! Of course, what he was thinking is information lost; now, if he was still in prison, he would have at least the possibility of expressing such regrets.
Haha, no person of faith here! IMO, providing a murderer with an opportunity to express -anything- is more of an opportunity than he afforded his victims. Maybe prison is punishment; or maybe it's a place to get a college education. To me, the ultimate price to pay for sadistically taking life is to forfeit one's own life. People like that have no business maintaining a pulse.
