It makes me happy knowing his last moments of life will be spent in a prison.

It's the subtlety of it. If you said, life in prison, he would say ok I'm here to die. If you say, 150 years, he thinks, well gee I wonder how many more year I have in me? 2? 5? 10?

I would imagine he is going to get killed or at least abused in prison. He might hang himself, in which case he'd at least die with honor.
