I like this idea instead. Put a big mothballed battleship about 200 miles offshore and ring it with mines and caution buoys. Make sure all creature comforts have been removed. No mattresses, no electricity, no running water, etc. Drop all the guilty parties onto the ship by helicopter. They have the clothes on their back and a little pouch containing some fishing line and a hook. If they want to eat, they better catch some fish. Nothing to cook it with so it's sushi time everyday. Thirsty? Catch rainwater with the plastic tarp left onboard. No TV, no communications of any kind. One Coast Guard vessel patrols 10 miles from the ship just to keep others away. They can all look at each other and see the losers they are. They are in God's hands now. Forever left to their own devices where they can bother nobody but themselves. No rescue, no visitors, no food other than what they can catch. They can cannibalize each other rather than little kids. That ship will forever be a sign to others tempted to do the same thing. It would be a punishment worse than death.
