I don't know details of what happened, but he made it sound like if someone without powers did something like kill someone, there would be some form of punishment -- a day or two locked up somewhere -- but that if someone with powers did it, the punishment would be a day or two locked up somewhere and the implantation of a chip that nullifies their ability to use their powers.

[Which is also something he, unsurprisingly, doesn't care for either.]

He didn't seem to think it was very fair.
