▶ Your Answer :
There is no doubt that the enormous number
of crimes are existed all over the world. with regards this issue some people
insist that the punishment need to be fixed for each kinds of crime. However,
others argue that the motivation and circumstance of committing the crime
should be considered when the punishment is taken. Therefore, i believe that the
considering about background of criminals can be more useful than a fixed
punishments
It is true that if the punishment is fixed
on each crime, it can make the process of trial more faster than before because
criminal already choose the punishment while they are committing the crime. In
other word, the lawyers do not need to spent time to judge them cause of a
given punishment. However, a fixed punishment can be brought about the chaos of
deciding on the punishment. For instance, the crime of robber is designated with
the 3rd level of the punishment, there are two robbers of house and bank, but
they cannot take the same level of the punishment because the grade of crimes
are different.
On the other hand, by taking into
consideration about the circumstances and motivation of criminals, the length
of trial can be prolonged, but rather it can provide a more accurate judgment,
and distinguish exactly between the criminal and innocent people. However,
those systems can accompany with some side effects, and this systems already
imposed in Korea few years ago. In particular, when the murderers kill a person,
but if they have a illness on their head, they will get a lower grade of the punishment in spite of they commit the murder.
To conclude, it is clear that the punishment need
to be designated because for accurate judgment as the positive impacts outweigh
the negative impacts rather than a fixed punishment. |
