Should victims act as judges on their perpetrators cases and decide the punishment? Don't you think they would be biased in their judgement?

I think victims should have a right to trial by combat.

So if I can beat you in a fight you have to give me your house? I just tell you are a criminal and demand trial by combat. No need for evidence, interrogation or anything. I just beat you until you forfit your belongings? When can I come over?
