Money Is Freedom

This Tuesday, a 15 year old girl in our town was found raped and dead in the basement of her house. Police have arrested her 25 year old cousin and he was charged with rape and murder and set on a $500,000 bail. Meanwhile in Philadelphia on the 4Th 3 men were charged with armed robbery and given a $200,000 bail. The problem i see with this is that the law is basically saying that if you try to rob someone at gunpoint and you do no physical harm to them then your gonna have to pay $200,000 for your freedom which in all is fair because you didn't harm anyone and might not have had an intentions to do so all you did was commit robbery and used a weapon as a threat not as a way of harm. Now we look at the case of this girl who was raped and murdered at 15 and the murderer only has to pay $300,000 more for his freedom then the armed robbers. So the law is basically saying that a life is only worth $300,000. I feel that there should be now bail for committing such a terrible crime anyone who takes a life should have to pay with either a jail sentence of a death sentence not a sum of money. If money can't buy you love than why should it be able to buy you freedom.
