desert theory

a theory of punishment that is retributive in nature and involves giving out a punishment that the offender deserves, without considering other factors, such as rehabilitation.

Also known as 'just deserts.'

Judge Tough does not believe in rehabilitation -- he only subscribes to the desert theory of punishment.

Desert Theory

The Theory that: If one were ever lost for an extended period of time in a desert, that if you were to see any member of the opposite sex you would automatically be attracted to them due to sexual deperation.
