It’s not as simple as violence = jail and non-violence = no jail. A person could still inflict a great deal of harm without physically administering it. Punishment is circumstantial. If a person swats another person on a livestream should they go to jail? What about if a scammer wipes out the bank account of someone who is already poor and the anxiety causes them to commit suicide? What if someone’s life gets ruined by identity theft and it takes them years to recover? There’s lots of ways a person could ruin the lives of other people and inflict tons of damage while “non-violently” sitting behind a computer screen.
