I appreciate your candor, but that aspect does never pursuasive to me. If Charles Manson was my brother and we'd played on the playgrounds together for years back in the 60s, i'd probably want them to let him out. The "what if it was your mother who was commiting bad crimes" hypothetical never influences what a proper response should be by the police.
As to the guy not deserving it, read the story:

The car then slammed into a Blue Ash cruiser at Reed Hartman and Cooper Road.
As two officers approached the stopped car, they said Bennett accelerated towards one of them.
Both officers fired into the car in response. At that point, Bennett reportedly took off again.
Just 200 feet away along Reed Hartman Highway, Bennett hit another Blue Ash police car.
A third officer was struck by the car as it lunged forward.
He was slammed onto the car's roof and then fired additional shots into the car to get it to stop.
The chase finally ended near the intersection of Reed Hartman Highway and Cooper Road in Blue Ash, after the driver crashed into a Blue Ash cruiser.
Blue Ash Police Captain James Schaffer explained what happened next, "Further down the road at Reed Hartman, the suspect crashed into a second police car. Then the car lunged at several officers as they tried to approach, and more shots were fired."
