Sure, the idea of revenge is attractive to me as well. But I really don't want the legal system to operate at the level of my base emotional desires. If a crime is bad enough that there should be no second chance, segregate them from society safely until they die. I don't see how the justice system hurting/harming/torturing people does anything other than normalize hurting others when you feel wronged, and therefore normalizing more criminal violence.
