Hm... No, they need to keep him in view as an example warning to others. -Stoic Joker
No they don't. And his silence is more valuable than him being around as an example. The spin doctors are only preaching to the choir and the borderline undecided anyway. And roughly 50% plus change of the population already think he shouldn't have done it regardless.

Yes it is. But that works both ways. Like BinLaden - it's scarier when you know the shark is out there
somewhere rather than right alongside your boat where you can do several things about it.
No...out in the
wild somewhere (
eeek! 
)...using his knowledge to aid and abet the enemy? I think he's far more valuable to the current powers if it's generally believed he's still loose and
unpunished. That gets people angry because "he got away with it." And also serves as justification for expanded "security" legislation and suppression of freedoms.
Not to say they couldn't just wack him and still let people think he was alive. That strategy proven effective too.
Not like they need to keep him alive. With the overall hostility being shown towards this guy by the media (and the Legislature) there's small chance of him attaining martyr status if they do. Which is why whistleblowers generally get pilloried with impunity despite the so-called "protections" that are on place to prevent it. And in this case, there's very little chance of much public support since this county seems to be doing everything in it's power to
not see that a very real
coup took place
within the government shortly after the WTC attack - and they're now living in a police state. That's the elephant in the room
nobody even wants to acknowledge, let alone deal with. (DC isn't the only place that has a
Basement for topics
some people consider threatening or inappropriate.
)
And as time goes on, it will become increasingly difficult (or "legal") to do anything about it. Especially since no government - no matter how enlightened - has ever willingly relinquished additional power once they've been granted it. And ours is far from enlightened.
