I do sometimes feel that the Old West had better justice.

Simple, common sense justice without the interference of politics.
Back in the 1800’s, the report of a Texas Ranger Captain on patrol with his company in the Texas Hill country read;
“Came upon 4 cattle rustlers and 14 head of stolen cattle. Final cost to the state; 6 rounds, .30 Winchester ammunition.”
The penalty for cattle rustling and horse theft was death, they were caught red-handed. No need for a trial, all that was necessary was to carry out the punishment. Vultures and Coyotes did the clean up.
