@Kyo justice is relative, for everything to be equal it would have to be an eye for an eye (talion). If your father died, justice for you would be to see the murderer dead too. But what about serial killers? For there to be justice they would have to die many times, like bringing him back to life and killing them over and over again. So I get not feeling okay with the sentence, 16 years when they took away your father and they even took 6 years away from the sentence, it's like the legal system is a joke. Anyways, there is no such thing as justice, even if they give you the highest sentence wouldn't be enough because you lost your beloved person, there is no sentence that can make you feel justice was served unless you can see the murderer die, but again it is the eye for eye, world will go blind. The idea of lower punishments is to learn that people "can change". The legal system is not suppossed to only punish, it has to rehabilitate the criminals. The whole purpose of prison is to rehabilitate, whether it can be done or not is up to your thinking, but good conduct means they are on their way to rehabilitation. To me they cannot be rehabilitated, once a murderer, always a murderer. But laws say they can change and we simple citizens cannot go against laws.
