Asian_lovr2:

Here is the ultimate punishment for Voldemort.

To be immortal, stripped of his powers, and imprisoned.

Immortality sounds good, but forever is such a long time. For
Voldemort/Riddle it would be century after century of no where to go,
nothing to do, just endless wasted hours passing by for eternity.

Plus, living forever, doesn't mean being young forever, or being in
good health forever, or being of sound mind forever. Earthly
immortality is highly overrated.

It's almost too cruel to wish on someone. 

Just a thought.
