Since when do convicted criminals get to choose their sentences?

Frankly, it's probably better to have him back on ice than even on a penal planet with all he knows and with his great abilities. You telling me Khan couldn't break out of a jail? Kirk and McCoy did.

We don't know whether or not he got to choose. I'd like to think he did. As I said, it fits with the theme. Or, in these circumstances, given his abilities and possible threat, a judge may have thought refreezing was a better form of justice than a penal planet.

He was badly injured in the fight with Spock and as a result of the blood transfusions, so they put him on ice to save his life.

Or maybe some other reason.
