And you would pay for the thugs for the rest of your life. Such are the laws at least over here. One must not like it, but that is how it is.
However, in Saudi-Arabia a 24 year old is to be artifically paralysed because as a 14 year old he hit a buddy and broke his spine. An eye for an eye - this is the result.
What I do niot like is that even where an offender needs to pay penalties, all too often it is the state picking up the penalties to pay. What financial interest has the state in this? None. The offender should pay for his victim, and where it is possible, he should also give full compensation. where an additional prison penalty is given, he should work in prison also to pay for the costs of his food and lodging. It is a scandal that the public that gets protected from the offender by locking him away, nevertheless takes damage be having to pay for him. Sentenced criminals should work for their food and clothing. If they do not comply, do not make a big issue of it - let them starve themselves to death if that is what they want.
In an ideal world, the girl here would have to be heard on the penalty she imagines for those who raped her. The four would be sentenced also to later work in their lives and pay her a yearly compensation that covers all costs for therapy and other consequences of the rape, plus some additional "penalty fee". The false friends mocking her and turning away, would be sued for mobbing and character assassination, and also need to pay a one-time compensation to the girl. Whether the raping boys would additionally serve prison time or would undergo a corporal public punishement I would decide on grounds of what the girl says on that option.
In an ideal world.
