Do you think judges should be allowed to set whatever punishments they want for individuals that have broken the law? Why or why not? (Give a reason for your answer)

No because depending on what judicial system in a society a judges answer is bias and not as well thoughtful as a lawyers who are specifically defending the case and have done an immense amount of research on it. Most judges too have been around for a long time over 20 years and so they know a lot of lawyers personally so ultimately they are very bias. This also goes against the veto power in the states as the judicial system or the impeachment process. Overall it would just be very bias. It’s just like if police officers were allowed to just kill someone just because they want too it’s not right and that’s why they have implants in place to stop that but unfortunately it still happens.
