The only question is: do you want it to be easy for them to keep harming people? Do you want them to knowingly profit from the death of your child, or someone just like you? Or, do you want to make this happen less often, by having the ability to strike back when wrong has been done?
I agree - that is MY point also - They cannot be allowed to lessen the burden of those responsible. However, there must be equally stiff penalties for those who attempt to abuse the system.
