He who thinks he can decide in a state of aroused emotions, is wrong. He gets decided.

Eventually it happens that an offender really realises the wrong he did, and truly regrets and changes. I do not say this happens in all cases, I say that it does happen in some cases. That'S why the door usually should not get closed forever. If such a true change takes place in somebody, he indeed is no longer the person he has been before.

Eventually it happens that the person most affected by a crime - the victim - forgives as well.

And for once I agree with August. Costs should be no argument in sentencing. It would be an extremely dangerous precedence that easily could spread from death penalties to all kind of law cases and penalties in general. You should think twice before accepting that to happen, else we end up with putting people into coffins, linking them to life-support system inside (if that is not too expensive), and stacking the boxes near the garbage dump.
