No it's not the point I think you're making. Far from it. [Coming from politics, Edgeworth's exclamation is nothing startling.]

Even if we were to have a separate judicial system, it is going cause just as many problems as it solves.

First off, development. We have a unique community here and from my experience no one likes to agree on things that impact their freedom of action, or what they believe correct action should be.

Secondly, as with the case you just worked on. Should we have a separate system, then he should be tried and convicted twice, which is a non-efficient use of resource and time. Since he's been convicted in the native court, he can hardly undergo whatever trial we propose while he's in prison there. Even if he stays, what sort of penalty can we impose that is worse or that can stick?

Thirdly, it creates an image that we are above the law of the land here. Admittedly, there are those among us who feel like that anyways because they were above the laws of their homes. [He has to sigh a little...knowing one such individual very personally.]

Admittedly my objection to your plan may be more based in ideals rather then facts, but I am curious to know all the angles of the issue.
