MOB Justice has worked but very painful

Mob justice has been a very and way of punishing wrong doers. The problem is that sometimes the very wrong people are the ones who take a lead against their fellows in its application.
Thieves are stoned to death and sometimes burned by tires which leads to very painful death of the poor victims. The habit/practice has seemed to reduce wrong habits (evils) in society. The police insist that a suspect should first be apprehended then brought before court to face the full force of law before a determination of the case is done.
