Basically it comes down to choosing to let him live, and risking the deaths of multiple people should he escape. Honestly, I don't think his life is worth the risk of the lives he will take if he escapes.
Do you have any examples of serial killers escaping in recent history? Do you have any examples of any killers escaping maximum incarceration in recent years? And when they escaped, did they kill again before they were captured?

The fact that there is a consequence that will harm them is something that they see as bad, and will try to avoid.
Can you provide any evidence that the DP is a deterrence for serial killers? It has been shown that the DP is not a deterrent for murderers, but please show us the evidence tothe contrary.

it is more accurate to say that it removes the risk to society
And so does incarceration for life. No parole.
