I think capital punishment may not be enough to deter the crime fully (at least not for everyone). But, the person may think twice if their pension wasn't around to go to their next of kin. It's not just about punishing this heinous crime, but rather, it's about setting a precedent, and ensuring that there is sufficient deterence to make sure this never ever happens. It's kinda like that time, someone got 20 years, for Swatting someone. It set a precendence that will never be forgotten.

Should serial killers also lose their pension instead of being executed?

  He's not saying "instead", rather he thinks that loss of pension is a useful addition to execution. This doesn't strike me as likely, but then again I don't understand the psychology of serial killers or cops who would plant evidence on someone. I'd also sort of assumed that being sentenced to death for a crime would void any life insurance policies, but I don't know that for sure.
