Murphy purports to reconsider this claim when faced with a hypothetical polity that unanimously wishes to forgo punishment (177-179)
-
However, this narrow exception-a unanimous vote of all members of a community authorizing a judge or other public official to forgo punishment-is so unlikely ever to occur, and so unlikely to be recognized as what we commonly mean by, (rather than outright exoneration), that it does not meaningfully qualify Murphy's rejection of mercy as a public virtue

Note
-
Compare the different guidance on charging policy given to federal prosecutors by Attorney General Richard Thornburgh under the first President Bush and Attorney General Janet Reno under President Bill Clinton: the Thornburgh Memorandum instructed prosecutors to charge the most serious offense that is consistent with the nature of the defendant's conduct, whereas the Reno Bluesheet instructed prosecutors to make an individualized assessment of the extent to which particular charges fit the circumstances of the case, are consistent with the purpose of the federal criminal code, and maximize the impact of federal resources on crime.
