At one point "justice" was about making the victim whole (or at least as satisfied as he/she could be made) now "justice" is simply a function of the state where the victim may get to give a little "impact speech", but ultimately the state could care less. The state doesn't put away guys like this for what they did to this man and his family, they put them away as a matter of violation of statute. It's gotten to the point where some states have had to enact "victims rights amendments" to get some sort of mandated interaction between the victim and the prosecution. But even then there are no real guidelines mandating that the govt has to really listen.
Mind you Im not saying that that is not the way it probably should be, but have no illusion that "justice", means justice for YOU.
I would feel more pity towards a rabid dog being put down than I would for these two taking the needle.
