We judge and punish people's acts for a specific event, i.e., murder, rape. But, each one of us has a history behind themselves. Our lives are not just snapshots, but more like a movie.
We all are the product of our background, upbringing and natural talents, or lack thereof. Therefore, when someone commits a criminal act, shouldn´t we all - society as whole - be considered responsible?
Should we limit the freedom of that person not as a form of punishment, but rather as a means of reeducation and restitution, if possible?
