IMO the Teshnans (or perhaps a distinct group of Teshnans) adopt a Karmic solution. If the criminal perishes during punishment then he is reincarnated into a body of another to have the remainder of the punishment meted out. If the crime was particularly heinous then the criminal is reincarnated into bodies of non-teshnans to be executed repeatedly before being returned to society.
Some karmic punishments are suspended - a Teshnan might have a sentence of "to be impaled when he turns 30" and he could spend his time before then trying to purge his guilt and avoiding the spike.
