This is the kind of thing that puts the administration of justice into disrepute. Somebody who goes around setting fires clearly needs to be locked up. Now, it’s so weird and pointless a crime that I’m inclined to say they should be locked up in a mental ward, not in a jail, but they have no business being out on the street. The way I see it, either they are insane and the choice to be kept in the mental ward has to be made for them; or they’re not insane. If they are not insane, either they are unrepentant and need to be kept locked up; or they are repentant and will therefore understand and accept that we won’t let them out immediately.
