I agree with what you are saying. It was established that when people commit a crime (no matter what their age) they get a trial by the Council first then get floated/locked up if they are guilty (then trialed again when they turn 18). Murphy may have been an ass the 1st 4 episodes but he was loyal to Bellamy, never directly brought harm to anyone else, and he seemed to be normal with no disorders hurting him other than losing his parents. The 100 were all jerks to him for not giving him a chance to explain himself, Bellamy betrayed him, Clarke went against everything she stood for by banishing him, Well's and Charlotte's deaths weren't his fault, but most importantly he is on a path of redemption yet no1 seems to want to forgive him just because they can't swallow their pride.
