I'm with Enzyme here
I too feel the pull of the 'burn the fuckers' emotion but realistically we've tried that in the past and moved on. I reiterate that I agree what they did was a terrible thing, but does it make it any different from any other murder or horrific violent crime, in that they should burn for killing someone for the way they dressed?

I came to the conclusion a long time ago to trust the justice system to do its job. Yes, it makes mistakes, but every system does. Part of our human evolution is learning from mistakes, and we should give every criminal the same right to pay for it, learn from it and move on.

I know this is an emotive subject and I'm leaving myself open to criticism. Feel free.
