An Essay on the Principles of Circumstantial Evidence by William Wills Pdf

Excerpt from An Essay on the Principles of Circumstantial Evidence: Illustrated by Numerous Cases The most important doctrines of Circumstantial Evidence have been so ably treated in the learned works of Mr. Bentham and Mr. Starkie, that an apology may be thought necessary for this publica tion. It will however be perceived, that the design of the following Essay is different in some important particulars from that of either of the above-mentioned authors; and that an attempt has been made to illustrate the subject by the application of many instructive cases, some of which have been compiled from original documents, and oth ers from publications not easily accessible.

Not illustrated. 1838 edition. Excerpt: ... 200 CHAPTER VII. PROOF OF THE CORPUS DELICTI. Every allegation of legal crime involves the establishment of two separate propositions; namely, that an act has been committed from which legal responsibility arises; and that the legal guilt of such act attaches to a particular individual. Such a complication of difficulties often attends the proof of crime, and so many cases have occurred of conviction of alleged offences which were never committed, that it is a sound rule of legal procedure, derived to us from the Romans, (those great lights in all that relates to jurisprudence, ) to require satisfactory proof of the corpus delicti, either by direct evidence or cogent and irresistible grounds of presumption, before it is permitted to adduce evidence tending to inculpate any particular person. If it be objected that rigorous proof of the corpus delicti is sometimes unattainable, and that the effect of exacting it must be that crimes will occasionally pass unpunished, it must be admitted that such may possibly be the result. But it is answered, that where there is no proof, or, which is the same thing, no sufficient proof of crime, there can be no legal guilt. Considerations of expediency can never supersede the immutable obligations of justice, and occasional impunity of crime is an evil of far less magnitude than the punishment of the innocent. Such considerations of mistaken policy led the civilians to adopt the execrable maxim, that the more atrocious was the offence, the slighter was the necessary proof; and when the plea of expediency is once permitted to influence judicial integrity, such is the logical and inevitable consequence.
