About this listen
In this episode of "Humanity Matters Most," Jeffrey Church and Robert Tierney discuss the justice system. They explore the theory of punishment, focusing on retribution and its role in expressing the value of the victim relative to the offender. Tierney argues that punishment should counteract the criminal's message of domination, restoring balance and reaffirming the dignity of individuals within a community. The dialogue also addresses the practical aspects of the justice system, such as legal representation and procedural rights, and concludes with Tierney's aspirations to further develop his ideas into an article and examine the relationship between mercy and justice.
