There is a reason why Dante put the betrayers in the lowest circle of Hell
Edit to add:
"The treacheries of these souls were denials of love (which is God) and of all human warmth. Only the remorseless dead center of the ice will serve to express their natures. As they denied God's love, so are they furthest removed from the light and warmth of His Sun."
DING DING DING... no truer words were cast than that. I repeat that point to everyone. Murder only kills a man, and many times ends their misery, but betrayal kills their soul and leaves them in despair. I am paraphrasing / rehashing the jist
