Yes, we in the US have a punitive justice system, which emphasizes punishment under the dubious concept of punitive deterrence over remediation and other forms of deterrence (eg poverty reduction, though that is obviously irrelevant here).

Anyway, a law institution certainly has an incentive to push their own agenda when it comes to the theory of justice.
