A story might help explain this. In another
country a long time ago, there is a very tough penalty for stealing,
as a matter of fact, they would cut your hand off. Now one particular
judge was meticulous and consistent in applying the law and in his
sentencing. No one could bribe or intimidate him. He treated everybody
the same regardless of their status. If you were in his court and
convicted of stealing, you were sure to get justice and you were
going to lose a hand. One day an old woman was brought into his
court and after the testimony of a couple of eye witnesses, she
admitted her guilt.
