I remember reading something somewhere that they are lax in their murder punishments. I believe I read about a case where a woman flayed her husband and tried to feed him to her kids (unsuccessfully, thank goodness) and was the first woman to get life without parole in 1955. There had to have been murders worthy of it before then.
Kathleen Folbigg killed four kids and got 30 years, only 25 without parole.
On a side note, they did use the death penalty until the turn of the century. It seems they are getting more lax. They should just send them into the wilderness with no water and no shoes.
