No, but if they find themselves picking a career track where they solely treat murderers so that they can go on to murder more people without consequence, maybe the doctors should look to reform the system? And maybe doctors should not encourage that kind of ethos in med school?

I would much rather live in a world where punishment is reserved for the judicial system - where, thanks to lawyers, everyone gets a chance to a proper defense - than your intended alternative.
Can you describe my intended alternative with some detail?
I don't see how it conflicts with "everyone gets a chance to a proper defense" (at least as much as "everyone gets a chance to a proper defense" is true in the current system), so there might be some misunderstanding here.
