With respect to accountability, yes of course, but what this guy is talking about is retribution. Much of our criminal justice system is based on retribution. This might be something for the archangels to weigh in on. Here's an essay I wrote last year on the topic, https://medium.com/original-philosophy/an-eye-for-an-eye-38c4c5616c95 subtitled "Does retributive justice benefit society and individuals, or does it harm both?, and here's a fiction structured as a poem I posted several months ago, with a moral to the story. https://medium.com/write-under-the-moon/the-joy-of-murdered-souls-a9c931461f29 It's a courtroom drama that takes place outside the "pearly gates."
