Executing a crazed murderer is not only the appropriate punishment, but also a recognition of the fact that he could be released from the cage by clue-free future caretakers and kill again. After a certain point, the rights of the next victim far outweigh any consideration about the murderer.
However I do agree that the government is riddled with assholes who would cheerfully abuse such power if they could. So execution should be reserved for the most egregious cases.
