Mental instability is a sad thing, I don't know much about German incarceration programs but I can only hope they are better than the US otherwise I feel sorry for the guy.

[edit] woot, grammar nazism
What I meant is will he be put in holding with hardcore life time criminals, because in the US a mentally unstable person who kills someone but doesn't plead insanity will be put in the same prision as career criminals. And probably tortured and raped for his whole stay there.

Wrong! Life-long jail isn't life long jail here.
I looked it up now, the average time in jail here if your sentenced "life long" is ~20 years <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->
btw I should mention that his dad still stands by him, visits him in jail and pays his lawyer <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
btw2 I should perhaps mention that when the "killer" was younger he had tried several time to commit suicide, so his life must have been pretty messy in his opinion <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

"Meet Bubba. He's your cellmate."
"Um... hi... Bubba..."
*ETC ETC KTHX <3*
I for one am a tad appalled.
You're kidding right? You feel SORRY for him? He brutally murdered his own mother. I don't think anybody who does something like that could be considered sane.
So he's mentally unstable, so what? Letting him go just means he has the opportunity to kill more people if he chooses. Lock him up and throw him away I say. Better yet, execute him and ensure he won't kill again.
And the obligatory "olo lets pretend swords are guns then turn the anti-gun propaganda around" quote:
If swords are outlawed the only outlaws will have swords!!1

um... go check out the meaning of the word <a href='http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=decapitate' target='_blank'>decapitate</a>.
Better than what, exactly?
America doesn't treat these **** the way they should. If you ask me- this is how our law system should go:
Minor Offenses(under $100 stealing, light assault, light harassment): Community Service/Jail Time up to 1 Month
Major Offenses(sexual assault, over $100 stealing, assault, harassment, Grand Theft): Jail Time 3 Months Minimum, 20 years maximum.
1st-Degree Major Offenses(Murder, Mass Murder, Grand Theft of more than 1 thing, rape, Mentality Harassment, Stealing over $10,000) Minimum 20 Years, Maximum Life. If more than one of these has been committed and gets the Life penalty for both/all, instantly turns to death penalty. Longest Death Wait Time: 9 Months. Appeal Time: 6 Months.
...

...whoops. Let me rephrase what I said. "Incredible that he only decapitated his <i>mother</i>".
I mean, if you've got a nutcase with a metre of razor sharp steel in his possession, I'd have expected many more people to get injured or killed (either deliberately or accidentally). There's plenty of opportunity even for the one wielding the sword to badly injure themselves, if they don't know what they're doing\messing around with it\slightly off their rocker\combination of the above.

Hah Nice.
Hopefully he will get what he deserves; whatever that may be.
Oh and Rob, you may be disgusted that people here are light hearted about the matter but honestly; How should anyone respond to something they are so far removed from? This was the case of some kid's insanity, no one here can relate (hopefully) and so you don't have anyone feeling sorry for him...
(Trying to shed light on a bad situation, don't take this offensively or anything.)
