His friends are saying Her death is his punishment, I have no idea what logic they are using to work that guff out


Quite simple, his premis is that he didn't mean to kill her, he's killed the woman he loved and he is as devestated at the loss and as distraught at his actions as anyone. It will be on his conscience for the remainder of his life leading to a miserable existence which is suggested will punish him more than any jail term could.
