Kits - i don't view the intent of the Justice system as being simply about returning the victim to their previous condition.

the criminal has stepped out of bounds and harmed, not just the victim, but society as a whole. if the crime is severe enough then life in prison, or death are perfectly acceptable to me. i don't feel the justice system is about retribution, but rather punishment. big difference.
