He wouldn't last a week in the street if that ever happens.

Yeah. And shit can happen in the 60 minutes he isn't.

He's probably going to be isolated even during that 60 minutes. It's not like they send him out to the yard. I have a friend who has worked at a prison out here with some high profile inmates and nobody touches them. During their "outside time" they are basically in an outdoor cage by themselves for an hour. They are even picky about which guards get to interact with them. No warden wants to deal with having to explain why a high profile, well known inmate was murdered in their prison.

Don't people who kill other people without any regret suffer from mental illness? I am not really sure.

Glad that he got life in prison and the death penalty.

No. Most of them are clinically sane, the whole "mental illness" thing is something the media and other armchair psychiatrists like the use as a scapegoat and to separate themselves from these killers. Because if these killers are clinically sane then...what makes them different from Joe Bob down the block? It also gives people something to blame without having to do anything about it.

Factually, those who suffer from real mental illnesses are much more likely to be the victims of violence not the perpetrators of it.

Is he going to a Supermax?

He's probably going to Lieber Correctional. Which is the most dangerous prison in the state and I believe is the only prison left in SC to have a death row. He'll be welcomed there with open arms.

He'll end up in ADX Florence with the other high-profile domestic terrorists if he isn't there already, which is basically as high security as federal prison gets.

When his execution date is set he'll get moved to the federal death row at USP Terre Haute.

Psychopathy is a form of mental illness, fyi. Mental illness has become a broad term nowadays encompassing many different phenomena.

Which prison is he going to? Hopefully the Colorado ADX, for as long as possible. Death is far too merciful for this filth.

seems like a waste he can't be made to work to provide financial relief in some way to the victims (or famillies of)

He's still facing execution (pending appeals) for his federal conviction. ADX Florence is a federal prison.
 
African American inmates especially are going to give him a horrific experience all throughout his life in prison.
Well dserved.
