You can't currently diagnose a child as psychopath.

But there is a lot of new evidence from neurology, that psychopaths are born that way. And there is no treatment that can be done, with medication or otherwise. The make up of their brain is completely different. I've even read a known psychiatrist call psychopaths as another species, separate from human.

So. Maybe not kill him. But I would pay close attention, and I'd have professionals very close to the child. Unfortunately, psychopaths aren't born innocent. And one day we'll grasp this whole issue.
