She's not going to prison because of her illness, she's going to prison because she stole. Ok, but what's the purpose then?
There's no deterrent effect if the woman is mad as a hatter.

Justice.
Justice isn’t about deterrent, it’s about justice. If you do the crime, you do the time. She stole. The law says there’s penalties for that.
