Return of the Death Penalty - Evil
Remove all humans rights & bring back the death penalty for anyone who is convicted without a shadow of a doubt for a severely horrific/disgusting crime - murder, rape, paedophilia, etc.

However instead of the state being the executioner, make the inmates fight each other, either with their bare fists, melee weapons (gladitorial style combat) or in a demolition derby(a la death race), where fatally wounded combatants are left to bleed out, and minor wounds get basic triage - victorian era healthcare.

The fights would be shown on a live and uncensored pay per view webcast with 50%+ of the profits being given to the victims or their families. The rest would be used to cover the expenses the convicts incur whilst staying in a cell.

The criminals would be required to fight a minimum once per month for ten years before have their sentence down graded to life without parole, with a diet consisting solely of supermarket white label foods. The penalty could be applied retrospectively to all criminals in the UK convicted since 1975, as pensioners are less likely to provide good entertainment.

This would reduce the prison population and hopefully discourage all bar the most idiotic members of society from committing severe crimes.

Did you stay up late, watching The Running Man,
and completely miss the point?

Because the justice system is always 100% successful in convicting the right person...

I think pensioner fighting would be great fun.
Like tiddlywinks only with more incontinence

Only the most idiotic members of society do commit crimes.
Well, apart from bankers and politicians, but they have the power to buy their way out of trouble.

That doesn't sound too bad. Some of the Waitrose Essentials range is perfectly acceptable
