It’s actually sick, they already get a light sentence and also getting protected by the justice system while the victim they violated is heavily traumatized, probably for life. And what’s crazier is it’s happening more, I’m seeing it daily now every time I scroll, there’s another case. Just a few days ago a middle aged women was walking (probably from work it was about 2-3am) and a man was behind her, he strangled her with a belt, dragged her in between two parked cars and sexually assaulted her. He has a wife and children. This is sick Something needs to be done. It’s not just here, Korea currently the woman have a movement going on called 4B. I haven’t dine my research about it yet but correct me if I’m wrong, this movement was started because every other day a woman was murdered,stalked,abused etc. So now, they want nothing to do with men. Why do the men act blind to this? Do they not see how the woman/children around them are being treated? Do they realize they need us to procreate? I honestly don’t know what is going on in this world anymore.
So, you’re basically asking why we have a judicial system.
If you look at world history pretty much every human society comes up with a code of what is okay and what isn’t, and once they get to a certain size they start standardizing punishments as well.
The reason for this is because it works a lot better than ad hoc justice which is too reliant on variables like who was there that day.
Not to mention emotions. Which is inherently biased.
