That family is done. There wont be a single day in their lives that they wont suffer.
If these crimes were handled lightly, they would occur more often.
- crenstrope 6y agoYes but the killer was a math nerd, so clearly a better class of person in the minds of some of these commenters. A budding math genius should be allowed to drunkenly kill as many kids as they please and only get a minor scolding, apparently.
- aaomidi 6y agoOf course I would. There's a reason we don't want mob justice. And there's a reason families aren't really involved in prosecution.
- hu3 6y agoYea of course but that's a tangent. The point is if these crimes were handled lightly, they would occur more often. We can go all the way down to the animal kingdom. Lions don't usually attack hippos because they know there can be harsh punishment in failure. Otherwise said attacks would be frequent. Just as I don't drink and drive recklessly because I know there can be severe consequences. Frankly I believe the only way to reduce prison population is through education and opportunity BEFORE crimes happen but keep current punitive laws because they serve to protect the law abiding hard working citizen and to disincentivize crimes.
