Duty of state

This is purely hypothetical. Under the seperation of powers judges are separate from the law. If a judge finds someone guilty and sentences them to jail, but due to under funding the government lets hem out and a crime is committed as in Athlone. Can the state be held liable go failure of duty of care.? Or similar
