If you have erased their memories, isn't that just like torturing an innocent person for no reason over and over again?

It’s definitely torture, but not of an innocent person. If I forget that I’ve done horrible things, I’m still guilty of them

Quite a philosophical question. Some could argue that those memories are what made you. If your memory is completely wiped, then maybe you are a whole new person.
