Depends on which karma system turned out to be right.
If Hinduism is correct, then you’d earn a lot of bad karma by committing crimes that would get you 3 life sentences, so your first lie sentence would be as a human obviously, but then your soul would get reincarnated into a different living thing. You could be a tree, or a frog, or a dog. Assuming they could identify your soul in the new body, does the life sentence apply to a human lifetime, or the lifetime of the thing you’re reincarnated as? If you reincarnate as a tree and live for 200 years, do they just move you and plant you in a field somewhere until you die, sentence served? Or does the tree have to die and you still owe a life sentence as an ant or something?
Well yeah, you gun down a few dozen people, death can’t save you. Welcome to baby prison you dumb baby.

I feel like this could be a great short story
