The correct answer to this open question is the following.

King Hammurabi might argue that laws 215 and 218 were just because they tried to save a person's life.

Both laws refer to surgeons. If they saved a person's life, they had to receive 10 shekels of silver. But if the person died, their hands should be cut off. A little drastic, but that was Hammurabis's ideas.

Hammurabi was the King of Babylon for 42 years, according to some tablets written in cuneiform scripts found by archeologists in the site.
