Jedburgh justice

Read a random definition: que est le mesme

A quick definition of Jedburgh justice:

Jedburgh justice is a type of punishment where someone is punished first, like being executed, and then given a trial afterwards. It is named after a Scottish town where raiders were said to have been hanged without a trial. This is different from lynch law because it is administered by an established court, even if it is after the fact. Other types of justice include fair and proper administration of laws, justice between parties to a dispute, and justice that conforms to a moral principle.

A more thorough explanation:

Jedburgh justice is a type of punishment that involves executing someone before giving them a fair trial. The term comes from Jedburgh, a Scottish town where raiders were hanged without a trial in the 17th century. This type of justice is different from lynch law because it is administered by an established court, even if it is after the fact.

For example, if someone is accused of a crime and is immediately executed without a trial, that would be considered Jedburgh justice. This type of punishment is not fair or just because the accused person did not have a chance to defend themselves in court.
