It sucks when someone gets murdered with a hammer, to put it lightly. That's why we ostensibly put murderers in jail: to keep them from killing again, to deter others, and perhaps to rehabilitate them. But your comment shows another motive, one that I find a lot less defensible: revenge. You want the criminals to suffer, in a perpetual act of state-sponsored sadism. I don't want that. I wish other people didn't. It just feels sick to me.
