Are you more outraged at the Austrian Dungeon Dad or Bernie Madoff?

Which crime is worse? Of course Dungeon Dad is the lowest that humanity has to offer, BUT he didn't affect as many people as Madoff and lead to nearly as much pain to a group.
Think of it as, if you could erase ONE of them off the earth before they had a chance to commit their crimes, who would you eliminate? What if you had been cheated by Madoff? Would that change your opinion?
The thing is, I think it's easy to say that morally obviously the dungeon dad is much worse, but if someone was taking your livelihood in exchange for letting a stranger be tormented, that's the question. But I wouldn't expect or want you to be honest about that, and I really hope we live in a world where that is an honest answer.
