Some people believe that there should be fixed punishments for each type of crime. Others, however, argue that the circumstances of an individual crime, and the motivation for committing it, should always be taken into account when deciding on the punishment. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

In

this

day and age, it is believed that no matter under what conditions and intentions a crime has happened, for any kind of it, a fixed sentence should exist while some others think any case should be taken under consideration personally. I argue the

punishment

must be various for offenders. The reasons will be outlined in

this

essay. On the one hand, the notion of some citizens believing the fine should be fixed for all lawbreakers. In their thinking, if there is no fixed

punishment

for lawbreakers, it will lead to injustice. If the punishments are equal for everyone, people are aware of the consequences of their actions when they do something wrong, and

this

prevents them from breaking the law.

at the University of Toronto in Canada in 2017 have shown that if the consequences of wrongdoing are known in advance, the probability of committing a crime is reduced by 20% compared to when the consequences are not known.

On the other hand

, some people suggest that the motivation and circumstances behind any act of breaking the law should be investigated independently. Sometimes an individual has committed a crime but they neither meant to do it nor did they commit it willingly.

For instance

, sometimes a

person

has an emergency patient in his car and has to go through a red light because of the patient's condition. The

of

this

should not be equal to the

punishment

of the

person

who crossed the red light because of his desire under normal circumstances. In the nutshell,
