When it comes to deciding upon a correct punishment for those who have committed the really violent crimes (armed robbery, murder, etc) I often wonder why no one uses EXILE anymore. Pick an uninhabited island way off out in the South Pacific, hundreds of miles from any other island, and just dump them there. Why bother locking someone up for their entire life when the taxpayers are having to foot the bill for their food, their medical care, their clothing, and to pay guards to watch them? Save the money for something else.
Who gets exile and who gets the death penalty? Base this upon the individual case: Chante Mallard - exile. Andrea Yates - death penalty (and give Russell Yates a vasectomy).
