I don't have any opinion on this, but I don't care about the victim's family. The criminal justice system does not exist to serve victims.
You put it in a very blunt way, but more people should accept that this is true. If we determined sentences based on how long the victims have to deal with the consequences of the crime then everybody'd get a life sentence.
I have no problem with people saying this(tough on crime or not) if they are consistent about it. It infuriates me when these tough on crime people ignore the victims family when they don't want the death penalty for instance
