Thats millions of dollars in taxpayer money, this subhuman is not redeemable and cannot be rehabilitated. Immediate execution by the state would be appropriate.

That's not humane. Forced emigration to the Marshall Islands or some other place like it is much better.

Since both life imprisonment and death can be too light a punishment for some people, and all outside communication with prison inmates is monitored, imagine somehow an AI-to-prison grapvine interface that would allow anons to make donations to be deposited into the commissaries or to the families of inmates incarcerated in the same facilies of those who might have escaped appropriate justice (for whatever reason), in order to administer a more appropriate punishment as dictated by the consensus of the users. The application could be programmed to assign very specific and detailed actions to different beneficiaries, like paying some to ensure the inmate is kept alive, while others may be paid to see that inmate regrets their actions for every second of every day for the rest of their lives, perhaps in a non-violent, non-lethal psychological fashion.

Obviously something like this would never be allowed to exist on public platforms, seeing as how it would essentially be a vigilante justice or Lynch mob torture app, but is probably one of the lulziest things that someone hell-bent on chaos could do to disrupt the prison system...or anything else for that matter, such as a business or institution.

While this type of tech could definitely be used for diabolical purposes, it seems like it could also have profound uses in the realm of corporate, government and police oversight by the public. Seems like it could be a brilliant use of AI and crowdsourced funding, if a miraid of hurdles can be overcome. Suppose an excellent AI could even be employed to perform that function as well.
