Hell, this wouldn’t even work. They’d have him immediately arrested for destruction of Ministry Property, and never let him near Azkaban.
I doubt they’d have him arrested for destruction of Ministry property, because it would be such a PR disaster.
“Boy Who Lived Destroys Dementor, Arrested For Destruction Of Ministry Property.”
It would definitely limit his ability to carry out any sort of breakouts in future though, and possibly incriminate him with respect to the Bellatrix breakout.
I seriously doubt that if the Boy Who Lived killed a dementor in front of the Wizengamot, their response would be “let’s let a dementor eat him to make an example of him.” They may not respect him, but these are still people who’ve been celebrating Harry Potter Day for years.
Just because the members of the Wizengamot are stuck in a hate-spiral with respect to Hermione doesn’t mean that they’re exceptionally evil people regarding other issues (this is as good a place as any to take note of the chapter title.)

Doesn’t seem like anything a few lies and coercion of a non-free press couldn’t handle.
Or, say, stun him then let a different dementor eat him then show everyone how the delusional fool died trying.

Just be careful when you try to control people through their PR incentives. What makes them look good is not the same as them being nice.
