The short answer is yes, people should get punished for crimes they don’t remember.
Punishment for crimes is dictated by the action, the effects, and sometimes the intent. These things tip the scales differently depending on the specifics of a case. So what a person remembers or doesn’t remember is largely irrelevant to the law.
