Justice in society must include both a
fair trial to the accused and the selection of an appropriate punishment for
those proven guilty. Because justice is regarded as one form of equality, we
find in its earlier expression the idea of a punishment equal to the crime.
Recorded in the Bible is the expression "an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a
tooth." That is, the individual who has done wrong has committed an offense
against society. To make repayment for this offense, society must get equally
balanced, which can be done only by imposing an equal injury upon him. This
conception of deserved-punishment justice is reflected in many parts of the
legal codes and procedures of modern times, which is illustrated when we demand
the death penalty for a person who has committed murder. This philosophy of
punishment was supported by the Germa A. a criminal must be severely punished B. a criminal must be given a punishment that is exactly the same as the crime he has done C. a criminal must be given a punishment that he deserves D. a criminal must pay for his crime with his eyes and teeth [填空题]PowerPoint is a public-speaking application included in the Microsoft Office software package.
