Schizophrenic or not, he's gotta go. There's no way you do something like that and 'regain competency'. He should probably be executed. He's a danger to society.
There was a famous case in Canada of one bus passenger decapitating another bus passenger.

The guy was judged mentally unstable, and is already out in a halfway house.
Sometimes I think we are too lax and forgiving up here...

Wasn't the guy holding the head up to the window while everyone watched outside the bus?

Don't think so. If I did, I blocked that out.
This guy just got taken to a mental health place, and apparently served no hard time. I'm not sure that's justice, not to serve time if you are found mentally stable and released.

Essentially if you take someones life without a valid reason you should permanently lose your freedom. Now whether you spend the rest of your life in jail or in a mental hospital, the point is you need to be locked away somewhere, forever.
