What if the man discover they didn't do the stealing?
No kidding. Believe me, I'm the first to advocate a good thorough ass beating for criminals but getting your unit sliced off for stealing some dough seems...a little excesive. Whatever happend to just making sure they wouldn't be able to eat solid food for a few months first? I'd save the deboneing for the rapist and molestors and give the petty theives a good baseball bat across the teeth.
