should still have to serve the sentence that he would have had if he'd been convicted of murder probably 25 years at least in this instance

ludicrous however unlikely it is that if he can convince some do gooder that he's not mentally ill he could be out in a few years

in any case isn't any murder an act of insanity ? it's not normal to want to kill another human being

That's my thinking as well Mafeking.
Deal with the crime and sentence him accordingly then take into account his mental state hold him in a secure mental hospital.

For such a barbaric murder the sentence should be life without parole.
If his mental state changes then transfer him to a normal jail.

Yes, if he was found to be of sound mind when the murder took place, then no doubt it probably have been a whole life sentence.

Having said that, the Lee Rigby killers only got 45 years for trying to do the same thing.

Yes I think the problem on reflection is that the ECoHR insists that it cannot be without time limit irrespective of the severity of the crime.

I wouldn't get too worked up about the Muslim angle, he decapitated two cats as well.  Quite popular amongst those who believe the devil is in someone to chop them up.

Thinking back to four years ago, when some nutter beheaded a woman in Tenerife....

Witnesses claimed he may have picked an ornamental blade off the shelves - as security guards would have spotted if he walked through the door with it.
Local mayor José Reverón said the alleged killer was a bizarre individual who was known to police and had a history of intimidating passers-by on the street before yesterday's horrifying attack.
He was reportedly released from a psychiatric hospital in February and had a history of violent behaviour before the brutal killing.
He apparently admitted to the psychiatric unit after knocking a stranger's teeth out on the street.
Deyan Valentinov was reportedly released from a psychiatric hospital in February and had a history of violent behaviour before brutally killing the 62-year-old Briton in a shopping centre in Los Cristianos yesterday, it was alleged.
After the attack, the man reportedly ran out into the street covered in blood, carrying his victim's head and telling passers-by: 'This is my treasure'
