Crime and Punishment

Still most crimes occur now like in the middle ages. But I think punishments in the middle ages were so brutal and violent because they had no ideas of human rights, and belief in god and they believed tat God will punish them. There were many violent peoples around them. They wanted to keep control by scaring people. And people feel guilty when they crime. Also, they makes the punishment harsh to scare the people so they won't do bad things.Comparing with middle ages and modern days punishment, the middle ages were more brutal, up to god, people wasn't educated, and bronk. In modern days, people consider human rights, educated to commit crime, go to jail, less violent, and more technology. But somehow there were same things:Death penalty,  torture, court, and still violent though.
