I like alternative punishments as a concept, but the really cool ones aren't technological feasible yet.
For example, the texter that killed all those people while driving, it would be interesting if for a period of 10 years his DESTRUCT-ALPHA-DESTRUCT implant would cause any car he is attempting to start to burst into flames and melt into a puddle of molten goo.
But we're not there yet.
Also, it would be neat if for a period of 10 years, any cell phone he touches would explode like a hand grenade. I see Samsung is making advances with this feature, but again, we aren't quite there yet.
If there was a way to preserve limbs for 10 years, easy enough then, severe a hand, and in 10 years, reattach it. But sadly, we're not there yet.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
