 Either way it all depends on whether you think the main purpose of prison is to punish or to rehibilitate.

I think 10 years in a dark room by himself with nothing but bread and water will more likely stop someone from ever killing again than teaching them skills and trying to make them a better person ever will.

 

That would make him insane, 6 months of isolation drives just about anyone completely insane, I can't imagine 10 years. You would make him FAR more dangerous to himself and others. There is another way, but it's not an extreme left OR and extreme right take on it.
