murdered person cannot be resurrected
so, don't bother finding the killer? Seriously?
Murder is forbidden for centuries. Does it helps prevent it? Punishments are useless for regulating antisocial behavior, because they don't do any correction, they are just being revenge type thing, for mob mainly, to comfort their primitive need for justice in this world so they can keep on their pathetic existences. Person kills another person and then spends 70 years in prison sustained by taxpayers money - it is useless for both killer and community.
It's more about ways to correct behavior via intervention after finding a killer.
If someone murdered your loved one, you would be singing a much different tune.
And it is not 'useless' for the community to lock up someone that might murder again, are you high?
That would be tragic occurrence for me as well as for any other but emotions aside, punishment for any crime is useless. You have to look into long term perspective without subjective incentive.
