Corrected entry: When Robocop gets cut up, the kid says 'I've heard he's got a brain. I want to see it'. They then just cut his limbs off and return him to the cops. There doesn't seem to be any reason at all not to kill him, and of course he then returns and ruins all their plans. Sure, it furthers the plot, but they could have just scrapped that line and it wouldn't have been a problem.

Correction: The kid does get Robocop's helmet off, revealing the mass of lights and circuitry beneath that could be considered his "brain". Tearing him into scrap metal fulfilled their needs; they never said anything about killing him. Not tearing him apart any further was a character decision.
