They would be wrong. It doesn’t do anything to change what was done. The only thing it does it makes things worse for everyone. Everyone is forced to pay for their incarceration and it removes someone from society who could contribute to it instead. It’s a burden to society, not a boon.

That momentary joy will be gone in time, but the suffering of either party will never be changed.
