B.I.UL.5
whilst it continues uncertain, is not
equal to a certain loss of 10 starting: it is
only equal to a certain of starting.
That if may rendered equal to the profit of the
crime, it must be raised to 20.
Except in those Sinless men are hurried
on by outrageous passion they do not engage in the
carress of crime without the hope of impunity.
WhenIf a punishment were to consist only in
taking from an offender the fruit of his crime
and this punishment were infallible, there
would be no more such crimes committed, for
what man would be so insensibleinsensate as to
take the of committing a crime
with the certainty of not enjoying its fruits and the
shame of having attempted it. In but as
there isare always some chance of escape, it
is necessary to increase the value of the punishment
to counterbalance these chances of impunity.
It is therefore true, that the more
Punishm the certainty of punishment can
be augmented, the more it may be diminished
in amount. This is one advantage resulting
from simplicity of legislation and excellence
of legal procedure.
For the same reason it is necessary that
the Punishment should be as near in point of time to the crime as possible
, because its impression upon the minds of men is weakened by
distance, + because this distance adds to the uncertainty of
its inflection, by offering/appending fresh chances of escaspe.
