Procedure Code. or Penal.
Ch. Preface?
§ Common Law its depravity Laws
Restitution a bad precedent
1 Restitution of money wrongfully taken by a Police Officer, "a bad precedent."
For a sample an idea of the turpitude character/complexion of the instrument
called Common Law — of the morality and intellectuality
of those the men by whom it has been created, cherished, interposed
and preserved take this one sample among a thousand
☞ Copy an extract The Statement of the Reg Records Sergeant
Arabia in Atlas 24 Sept 1826 from Morng Chron. of the th
Robbery under colour of justice: of property 5s in the purses of men persons
apprehended on suspicion of unlicensed depredation, redemanded restitution demanded
by the proprietor from the apprehended as proof of innocence, and refused: appeal by Counsel to the Judicatory
the Old Bailey preceded by the Records Sergeant Arabia: the
application refused. Why? because such resolution would be
a bad precedent. The Common Law is a gas distilled
from precedents: see here a sample of them. In the whole
pharamacopeia of vice and criminality can could any thing
vick be to be found selected? Ord
A bad precedent! Refusal to become accomplices in a
robbery a bad precedent!
These Such are the men at whose disposal the lives
and futures of all others are placed! Such is the instrument
which they have at their command, to do this work with the instrument with which
they do their work. A This instrument the reformist Minister
the High Priest of official reform to take out of his hands
not the least splinter of it so much as a fibre/the will he part with.
How long under such oppression will the apathy
of the people endure? How long will they suffer how be prostrate while
plundered and trodden upon and trampled plundered by the most determined
and hardened and pityless of depredators and oppressors?
