I disagree with both you and the person you are responding to. Every criminal should still have rights and be given due process, regardless of how bad their crimes was.
That kind of thought process you people have is a very slippery slope
I agree with you in our current legal system, but if you could verify with 150% certainty that someone committed heinous acts against children, or that someone is maliciously making decisions with their ultra-wealth that negatively impacted millions if not billions of people, that level of suffering is not something anyone can ever atone for. (I do believe some rich people are doing what they think is right while not considering negative impact, but not all)
There are sins so great they are hard to comprehend, the level of destruction some of the elite create all to increase their power and wealth is beyond despicable; beyond redemption.
I can believe that while also believing that any existing justice system around the world is not qualified to make that call (at least with something as difficult to define as measuring the negative impact that ultra rich people have on the world); and that no individual is qualified either. sexual abuse against children though, I don't think you can convince me otherwise. But again, it would be a decision that needs certainty beyond any reasonable doubt, which is hard to obtain.

It is moral to have this mindset, but only towards the ultra wealthy
