First offense, good behavior: When a person commits a crime no matter how petty or heinous, it requires justice. The crimes that you committed are no less egregious because it was your first offense, and even though you supposedly have good behavior it does not excuse the crimes you've committed. Therefore when a person commits crimes it is required that they suffer fair penalties. First offenses and good behavior does not excuse what ever it is that you've done. My life is no less valuable just because it is your first offense, the crimes you committed are no more justifiable just because you have good behavior. If you unjustly take my life, if you murder me, it wouldn't be fair to me if you get a reduced sentence for a first offense, and it wouldn't be fair to me if you got out early on good behavior. I lost my life forever because of you and so you deserve to forever lose yours. Only if you had some sort of a just cause for taking my life could you be excused. Only if you met certain eternal probationary standards set by me might you be forgiven.
