**Update post 88, prosecution to seek death penalty***
If you're afraid of death, I guess you're not insane and therefore can stand trial.
He fears death so much that he offered to take a guilty plea for life in prison (with no parole). With that new information, I can't think of a better (legal) punishment than death.

Colorado shooting suspect James Holmes has offered to plead guilty and spend the rest of his life behind bars in exchange for avoiding the death penalty, according to court documents filed Wednesday.
Prosecutors have not accepted the offer because they may choose to pursue the death penalty.
"Prior to arraignment, Mr. Holmes made an offer to the prosecution to resolve this case by pleading guilty and spending the rest of his life in prison, without any opportunity for parole," the documents read.
