Just when did this happen?
The man looks a bit old. Looks like it was ages ago.
I think the punishment is OK, considering “extenuating circumstances”. Not sure we can go around supporting detached revenge, before that spins out of control and it starts happening left and right.
But certainly the punishment can be basically a “slap on the wrist”, especially if there is no other history.
There'd be too many queers and bullies needing burial, right?
