In all probability he'll be deemed insane, and will be incarcerated for the rest of his life. Be content.

An outcome like that won't make anyone feel better, but none of the primitive acts of "righteous vengeance" mentioned above will either. Whoever heard of a lynch mob saying, "Well, I feel a whole lot better now!"?
I agree, really i do....but damn, isn't it nice to dream! i may never know of this guy's punishment, and i believe that karma (or whatever goes round comes round) will take care of this. i'm not a violent person and would never be able to actually cause harm to someone without feeling threatened to an extreme, but i also know what it's like to be on the receiving end of abuse. Two wrongs don't make a right, but imagining someone acutally having to pay (in an equal manner) for their crime...well, it's quite satisfying.
