Day 25: Sentence of Death

This week's moral quandry is the justice system that we encounter on this part of Marinus. Essentially, it boils down to a case of guilty until proven innocent, instead of innocent until proven guilty, and seems to favour more circumstantial evidence as opposed to actual proof. This makes me consider whether the legal system found in 'The Conscience of Marinus' was actually needed,because the legal system that we witness on this planet is so awful that they need assistance from a higher power to be able to solve their issues, even if it means removing free will. All of this goes to show that with its acidic seas, screaming jungles and worrying legal systems, Marinus is perhaps not the best place for your holiday. This is what makes this serial so great, that we are able to witness all sorts of elements of Marinusian culture as we travel across this planet searching for the keys.
