That's a relief, but the guy should be put to death. It does no one any favors to keep stringing them along on an arbitrary indefinite attention. The victims have to be worried that he'll get let loose and strike again. The perpetrator is meanwhile tortured through indefinite extensions. Rarely, but sometimes the case such as Breivik presents itself for which, death is mercy to all involved.

Why can't we give him life and call that mercy, then?
It's not that hard to take a hard line stance against the death penalty and still say that mass murderers don't get to walk free.
