Then how do you justify incarceration?

Liberty is not a right, and can be taken away if judged to be guilty of a crime..

As far as incarceration, once the time has been served, a person is released. To permanently bar that person from exercising his or her rights after the original sentence has been fulfilled amounts to double jeopardy..

Liberty is not a right,

Yes, It Is.

And regarding your other statement, what about life imprisonment, or the death penalty? What use is it to say that a person is at liberty to go about his business, after the sentence has been served in full?
