No, you're equating "time" with "torture, murder, and rape."

Geoghan and everyone else in prison, from the car stereo thief to the tax cheat to the deadbeat dad to the serial killer is in prison to do their time. They weren't sentenced to gang rape, getting an uncoiled bedspring stabbed into their kidney, or getting daily beatings.

We obviously have different ideas about what "doing the time" is. Mine is incarceration and deprivation of freedom. Yours is some 3rd world cesspool's way of handling criminals.

Do unto others as you would have them to unto you ---- a lesson Geoghan learned very late in the game. I still think that what happened to him might have been what saved his soul ---- suffering can bring you to true repentence and salvation.
