"What country has had success with this eye-for-an-eye approach?"
Serious jail time for serious crime is not necessarily based on an eye for an eye mentality. When you see people who have committed the same sort of serious crime repeatedly (as in this case) one needs to remove them from the population to protect the law abiding citizens from their predatory behavior. Even with their failed plan these two cost tens of thousands of people a total of millions of dollars in lost wages and business. And it wasn’t the first time.
