I am not worried about being cruel to the guilty, when the guilty have been cruel to the innocent, which is what they're guilty of. Holding the guilty to account is not cruel, and if it is unusual, that can be rectified by making it what usually happens. Neither is simply getting embezzled funds back enough. 10x damages seems appropriate to me. While I like your idea of indefinite sentences depending on the receipt of fines, that is just ransoming, and is an age old practice. Sometimes tradition exists for reason.
