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.
There have been different views about how
crime
should be punished. Some people believe that it is better to have a fixed Use synonyms
punishment
for all kinds of Use synonyms
crimes
. Some others, including me, claim that each Use synonyms
crime
should have a different Use synonyms
punishment
as it may commit under different circumstances and with different intentions.
Fixed Use synonyms
punishment
, on the one hand, can prevent any corruption within the legal system, which can affect the Use synonyms
punishment
given. In a corrupt system, money and influence may decide which cases are prioritized or dismissed. Use synonyms
As a result
, perpetrators may get away unpunished Linking Words
while
victims are left with no answer or justice. Linking Words
In addition
, fix Linking Words
punishment
can be more deterrent when people know the exact consequences because more people are ignorant about the type of Use synonyms
crimes
they commit and their results. Use synonyms
Nonetheless
, all of those can be reduced by training. Linking Words
For example
, judicial personnel should be adequately trained and receive fair salaries to make them less vulnerable to bribery. Linking Words
Moreover
, the government can set up some programs to increase society's awareness of the justice system.
Linking Words
On the other hand
, not all Linking Words
crimes
are committed under the same circumstances. Use synonyms
Punishment
should fit the Use synonyms
crime
and some factors like poverty, mental health, and intention should be taken into account. Use synonyms
For example
, a person committing a violent felony with a clear intention should not receive the same Linking Words
punishment
as someone acting in self-defence. Use synonyms
Furthermore
, the flexibility of Linking Words
punishment
may decrease the rate of violent Use synonyms
crime
, as a violent felony does not receive the same Use synonyms
punishment
as a petty Use synonyms
crime
. Use synonyms
For instance
, drug traffickers may bring more drugs if there is a fixed Linking Words
punishment
because they believe that they will receive the same Use synonyms
punishment
for each amount of drug, so they prefer to bring more.
In conclusion, Use synonyms
although
fixed Linking Words
punishment
has many benefits, Use synonyms
such
as preventing corruption, or it may be more deterrent, I believe that it is better to judge each Linking Words
crime
by its circumstances, which may decrease the rate of violent Use synonyms
crimes
