Actually, in this case he had not yet gone to trial but was being held pending trial. The example was only to show that prison is not necessarily a safe punishment. As for execution, no, I do not propose bringing back hanging for minor offenses. But there have been some cases recently where I honestly wouldn't mind seeing them institute public crucifixions for some criminals.
