Justice?

I am no expert in the legal system and the following case isn't in the US but it still is wrong.<br />n<br />n<a href="http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story2&u=/cpress/boys_in_cages">Boys caged and beaten by parents say they're angry over 9-month jail term</a><br />n<br />nWhat is really bad about this one is the judge said that the abuse over 13 years was "horrendous but well-intentioned." Well-intentioned? Keeping children caged, shackled, and beaten is well-intentioned? I must be missing something really big here or this judge is off his rocker. This might have happened in Canada but that doesn't mean the same thing can't happen here.<br />n<br />nP.S. I considered making a joke about going off to build a cage since it obviously no big deal but I can't even joke about this it is so evil and vile.<br />n<br />n<b>To do injustice is the greatest of all evils.
