Depends on the country maybe? Here in Brazil no one believes criminals can be fixed, here we want them away, locked up or dead.
Joking aside, I think that using prisons just for isolation is a waste of tax payer money.
Just think about at the case at hand, we are wasting the money needed to keep this guy in jail for another 8 decades with no actual reasons.
edit: fix grammar
In fact the only place where I saw "Correctional Facility" was in US-movies and series, I thought it was some fictional name or something like that.
(It is also clearly apparent that some criminals are unreformable - telling the difference a priori remains the hard part).
