Here we run into an interesting problem. Just because someone has no rights doesn't mean it's suddenly ok to torture them.
If a dog bit a child, or even killed a child, would the pound decide to kill it by chopping it up bit by bit?
There's things that, as rational and moral human beings, we don't do. Intentionally causing great harm and suffering to someone to 'get them back' for what they've done is one of those things. I did the whole "I'll hit him coz he hit me" thing when I was a kid, then I grew up. Apparently some of us haven't managed that yet.
Whether or not the person deserves every last worst thing in the universe to happen to them is irrelevant, because we never should stoop to the level required to do those things to that person.
