Joe kidnapped a child for ransom in 2002. in 2006, he was tried for the crime and convicted by a jury. the judge sentenced him to five years’ imprisonment. what do you think the sentence lacked, in terms of the classical theory? a. certainty b. swiftness c. severity d. appropriateness

The correct answer is C. As the judge sentenced Joe to five years' imprisonment for kidnapping a child for ransom, in my opinion the sentence lacked of severity.

Explanation:

Kidnapping involves a crime against the freedom of a person, in which this freedom is reduced by the criminal action of a criminal who does not have the right to do so.

In America, freedom is the most precious right of citizenship. Without freedom, there is no possibility of exercising other human rights; Even life is subject to freedom, since those who do not have freedom cannot decide what to do with their existence.

Therefore, the fact that Joe has committed a crime against freedom implies a penalty that should be exemplifying, both to deter potential criminals and to enhance the right to freedom as the fundamental right of America. Following these guidelines, a penalty of 5 years in prison is, at least, not very severe.
