Where the victim can't be made whole due to irreversible harm, salvage what remains of the situation and rehabilitate the offender. That may require imprisonment but the imprisonment should be focused on rehabilitating the imprisoned so that they can be quickly released and become productive members of society. If an offender can't or won't be rehabilitated, only then should they be left to rot. They should at least be kept in humane conditions however.
