The punishment of criminals is not about revenge, but rather it is about protection and deterrence. Assuming the implicated parties are guilty, taking pleasure makes no sense - you should be relieved, if anything.

How about justice? Which on the otherhand deters and protects the public. I've heard Wilson's wife has been getting threats.
