Given The Punisher is a man who would ruthlessly kill you for jaywalking or littering most of the time, it's not exactly surprising that when he meets criminals who have done legitimately awful things, he scales up his punishments accordingly.

So when Frank discovers a group who sell women as sex slaves, and who have killed a woman's child so she's too scared to tell the police about their crimes, you can kind of tell how well it's going to go for them. So well that it leads to three of Frank's most brutal executions, in fact.

In the first, the Punisher captures one of the slavers, knocks him out, and then lets him wake up to discover the anti-hero has wrapped his intestines around a tree... and then leaves him there.

In the second, he hunts down the other individual largely responsible for these awful deeds, and attempts to throw her through a glass window. When it turns out the glass is reinforced, Frank merely decides to beat her head in using it, until the window pane itself pops out entirely.

Finally, he burns the ringleader alive, and records it as a fun little memo to send to the rest of the people involved. Add in the fact he killed around a hundred other people during this, and you've a pretty clear sign why people try and avoid getting in the Punisher's bad books.
