Read a random definition: person of inherence

A quick definition of Jeddart justice:

Jeddart justice is a type of punishment where someone is punished before they have a trial. It comes from a Scottish town called Jedburgh where raiders were hanged without a trial. This is different from lynch law because it was done by an established court, even though it was after the fact. It is not fair or just because someone should have a trial before they are punished.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Jeddart justice refers to a type of punishment that involves execution before a trial. It is named after Jedburgh, a Scottish border town where raiders were said to have been 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, although after the fact.

Example: In the case of Jeddart justice, a person accused of a crime would be executed before being given a fair trial. This type of punishment is considered unfair and violates the principles of justice because the accused is not given the opportunity to defend themselves in court.

Explanation: The example illustrates how Jeddart justice violates the principles of justice by denying the accused a fair trial. It is important for justice to be fair and impartial, and for individuals to have the opportunity to defend themselves against accusations. Jeddart justice is a form of punishment that is not consistent with these principles.
