It is morally impermissible intentionally to punish the innocent or to inflict disproportionately large punishments on wrongdoers." Time to continue my trek through Val McDermid’s Tony Hill and Carol Jordan series, which I started in August 2021. Almost two years later, I have finished Book #7—THE RETRIBUTION. Both plot lines ended in unanticipated ways, at least for me, a regular reader of crime/thriller novels. I didn’t see either outcomes coming. Definitely a plus. Although, I thought there were a couple of missteps—for example, Carol Jordan’s overreaction in blaming Tony for not foreseeing what no one would have been able to predict—the story ended on a high note. After building up tension, this finale was a temporary release, but still left me bruised, after reading about the horrible things that occurred prior to the surprise denouement.

Retributive justice is of two distinct types. The classical definition embraces the idea that the amount of punishment must be proportionate to the amount of harm caused by the offence. A more recent version advocated by philosopher Michael Davis asserts that the amount of punishment must be proportionate to the amount of unfair advantage gained by the wrongdoer. Davis introduced this version of retributive justice in the early 1980s, at a time when retributive justice was resurging within the philosophy of law community, perhaps due to the failings [ original research?] of reform theory in prior decades.

After a police chase, Matt is eventually surrounded by them with Angela and Heather arriving at the scene. Once they realize that the pressure plate is only located under Matt's seat, the bomb squad safely removes Zach and Emily, who is then treated for her injuries. Interrogating Matt, Angela suspects the bombing might be related to the heist. After talking to Heather for the last time, Matt drives away and evades the police, determined to find the bomber by himself. Matt demands the bomber to meet him in person if he wants the money.

Most people will not want to argue with clauses 1 and 2, so this structure does have the benefit of focussing attention on the real point of contention - the usefulness of non-capital punishments in the case of murder. If you are a fan of the Jordan/Hill series, then I would say you can't possibly miss this book; a lot of important stuff happens, and I think if you're invested in the characters, much of the book will be a series of gut-punches, but gut-punches you would be sorry to miss (kind of like Changes was for Dresden Files fans). For me, though, this is (and shall remain) the only book I've read in the series. There are two main reasons for that: (1) the gore. THE GORE and (2) the ending. What kept me reading was the characters. McDermid is very good at creating characters readers can care about. Her central protagonists, Tony Hill and Carol Jordan, are flawed but compelling. The secondary characters are also very well drawn. McDermid has allowed her characters to grow and change throughout the series, which adds interest to the novels. As a reader I genuinely want to know where she will take them. Mike Fleming Jr. (May 9, 2017). "Liam Neeson To Star In Studiocanal's 'Retribution' ". Deadline.

Some people who believe in the notion of retribution are against capital punishment because they feel the death penalty provides insufficient retribution. They argue that life imprisonment without possibility of parole causes much more suffering to the offender than a painless death after a short period of imprisonment. David Robb (July 30, 2021). "SAG-AFTRA Presidential Candidate Matthew Modine Says Union "Cannot Survive" Two More Years Of Current Leadership: Q&A". Deadline Hollywood. Archived from the original on August 27, 2021 . Retrieved August 27, 2021. He [Modine] responded on Thursday after returning from Germany, where he was on location filming Retribution with Liam Neeson. Proportionality requires that the level of punishment be related to the severity of the offending behaviour. An accurate reading of the biblical phrase "an eye for an eye" in Exodus and Leviticus is said to be: " only one eye for one eye", [13] or "an eye in place of an eye." However, this does not mean that the punishment has to be equivalent to the crime. A retributive system must punish severe crimes more harshly than minor crimes, but retributivists differ about how harsh or soft the system should be overall. The crime's level of severity can be determined in multiple ways. Severity can be determined by the amount of harm, unfair advantage or the moral imbalance that the crime caused.
