Was there a punishment if someone Aztec broke a law?

Capital punishment was common in Aztec penal law: strangulation, stoning, and beating were its most common forms. Other penalties included exile, confiscation of property, destruction of one's home, public humiliation, or stern lectures. Restitution was a common element in the sentences for minor thefts, frauds, or personal injuries, sometimes by making the offender the slave of the victim. Nobles or priests were usually singled out for harsher penalties.
