It really depends on the crime, but if someone murdered one of your relatives, what kind of penalty would you prefer then?

It doesn't matter. Whether my relative was killed or a total stranger in another state was killed should have no bearing. Justice is the carrying out of laws with reason and without passion or prejudice. It's not the job of the justice system to make victims "feel better" as so many "victims' rights" groups tend to advocate.
