I just don't see the point of using victims, people who have already suffered more than enough, to do the work that government should be doing. And the "stiff" is the mortal remains of someone who has family and friends; if the corpse were that of someone close to me, I would not want it wheeled out as an object lesson to a complete waste of skin.
I don't know the answer, which is ok because I don't get paid mega bucks to know, but I still don't think getting tougher on crime is the complete answer. Look at the US, no democratic country is as tough on crime as the Americans are; and look at their crime rate .... it's through the bloody roof .... the thought of the chair, or lethal injection, or fifty years on your knees in front of bubba, doesn't seem to be much of a deterrent
