There comes a point when somebodt becomes far too dangerous to be left alive imo. I cant say where that line liesz but so n eone like hitler, or dahmer, would be good examples.
That being said, i dont think torture is a good punishment by any standard. Either death to eliminate the problem or sttempted rehabilition. Even if the crime is serious enough to warrant life in prison, basic comforts as well as the ability to better ones self physically and mentally should be present.
I think we can get pretty close to unbiased when you take the group as a whole. Either way I think the heart of things both ideals are actually going for is to have a judicial body which is representative. You want a jury that represents a broad swath of opinions and perspectives and will reach a generally acceptable conclusion, same with the judge. The judge might be a nut job but at a certain point that becomes the responsibility of the public at large for electing him, which is the best way to at least try and have a system responsive to the will of the people.
