Define the systems of parliamentary reward, thieftakers, and thief makers. What problems resulted from each of these systems?
What will be an ideal response?
Students should explain that a Parliamentary reward is a reward offered by the government to anyone who apprehends a criminal. They should also note that this system was problematic because people were unsupportive of both the legal system and the informers due to harsh sentencing at the time. Students should then describe a thieftaker as a citizen hired by a victim to apprehend a criminal or return stolen property. The inherent problem of thieftakers being corrupt and working only for the poor should be mentioned. Lastly, students should describe thief makers as individuals coercing or tricking another person into committing a crime as well as the obvious problems associated with that.
