However, in rare cases I believe that there are some crimes that may be too heinous that retribution is warranted.
Sorry, maybe I should clarify slightly. I believe sometimes people deserve to face retribution--if someone tortures and murders your entire family, I would like cops to look the other way when you torture the perpetrator to death in return.
I don't believe courts should ever be a tool to dish out such retribution. That just leads to innumerable slippery slope arguments.
