If we avoid 'jungle justice' for petty thieves like this and convert that to compulsory community service, our communities will be better for it. Many more offenders may repent and do more social good!https://t.co/zug8aMmcWi

This probably the way forward, maybe pay him a small token to teach him the dignity of labor

I think possibly cleaning gutters in communities is a business idea from a punishment that saved his life. He can make his own money.
