There had been talk of a trial system for those we're still holding here ... I'm personally fully in favor of continuing the plan, but has anyone any other ideas? I'll state for the record that any form of death penalty will not be permitted, impermanence of death here in Paradisa notwithstanding.
We need to do something. No wonder they're all getting antsy. They've been stuck down there without knowing what their fate is for months. Yes, they need to be punished, but keeping them down there indefinitely won't do anyone any good.
Yeah, I ... I been thinkin' the same thing. [Ray makes a guilty little face - he's mostly thinking of Billy, who really doesn't seem like he could hurt a fly unless brooding suddenly became a lethal weapon]
Problem is, what can we do? Room arrest or ... what? I mean ... is the time sentence enough? And how d'we decide if it is?
I think the prisoners should use their time trying to make up for what they did, and doing the right thing.
Not everyone wants to change or take a different path. As hard as that is to accept, we should make allowances for them, too. Make sure they're treated humanely, but kept from harming other people.
Put them to work then. Get them to fix the town up or something, pay recompense for their actions. If they don't want to do that, they can stay in prison.

Everyone deserves a second chance. But we should make sure the victims and their families feel like the punishment is fair, too.
