Paragraph
Personally I think that a person who commit a crime have to pay for it. When the police find someone guilty it's because confidential people give evidences. In our days I see that all the investigated people are on judgments because someone take they to the court, and after that the judge have to say if the person it's going to be acquit or convict for a crime.

If you commit a crime, the state can press charges against you. You will be arrested for that crime and a lawyer will take you to court. You could be sentenced to many years in jail. If you're lucky they will let you pay a fine to get out. So you do not have to commit crimes.

Paragraph
In my neighborhood there was a couple living together, they used to live in the next house of mine and they had two kids, we used to hear the woman crying at night almost every day, once we heard the kids screaming and crying, yelling their father not to hit their mother, we immediatly call the cops, when they arrived we give evidence about this guy screaming to his family, possibly drunk (we had a couple of videos), the police arrested this man and they said that he was commiting a crime because the wife decibed to them diferent types of agression, like one month later after this situation we realized that the court found this guy guilty because apparently once he hit his wife so much that killed his own kid (she was pregnant), and if I am not mistaken he is still in prison because of that.
