Where harm does occur but the people causing it cannot be caught.
The speck case illustrates the debate between biological and sociological theories of crime causation because it involves mental health issues and criminal behavior. Advocates of biological theories might focus on Speck’s genetics or brain chemistry, while advocates of sociological theories might look at his upbringing or social environment to explain his actions. This case highlights the ongoing discussion about whether factors like biology or social influences have a greater impact on criminal behavior.
Her real name was Elizabeth Short and since her death in 1947, there have been many theories and speculations, as well as a number of books, movies, and newspaper articles about the case. What there has not been is a definite answer to the mystery. As of this writing, the crime remains unsolved and we do not know who murdered her.
The average punishment for attempted murder in the US can vary depending on the circumstances of the case, including factors such as the defendant's criminal history, the severity of the crime, and the jurisdiction where the case is tried. Sentences can range from several years to decades in prison, and may also include fines and restitution.
"..The penalty thereof is death. But, in their great mercy and tenderness of heart, they have doomed Mistress Prynne to stand only a space of three hours on the platform of the pillory, and then and thereafter, for the remainder of her natural life, to wear a mark of shame upon her bosom."
At this point there are not three theories that could solve this very cold case. There is only one. Thanks to the science/art of criminal profiling it is clear that Elizabeth Short was not the killer's first victim. In fact there were two previous murders in the Los Angeles area that remain unsolved and can be circumstantially linked to the Black Dahlia. Known as the 'bathtub' murders, they have many similarities to the later case. Due to the notoriety of the Black Dahlia case, there is very little left of the physical evidence in police archives. Pilphering evidence from famous cases is not unheard of. But the two murders before Short's barely made a ripple in the L.A. area. There is most likely evidence in those files, that may be able to not only tie the murders together but may shed some light in the Dahlia case. This seems to be the best chance of solving the Dahlia case. Why someone has not done this is a mystery. Motive, escape, and identity are the remaining elements to be proven. Though not 'theories', there is no consensus on any of the above referenced aspects of the crime. ☺

Punishment
Clarify the question please. 'Punishment' given to whom, the defendant or the attorney that 'lost' the case?
Wilkerson v. Utah was the case in which it was decided that burning at the stake was considered to be cruel and unusual punishment. While this case addressed the idea that shooting a person to death was considered cruel and unusual punishment the government looked at all manners of death that should be labeled as such.
An amicus is a person in law who is not party to a case but who submits a brief and/or presents an oral argument in that case.
The Judge determines the punishment once the verdict has been read and the defendant found guilty.
In a case, a lawyer discovers information, presents evidence, and defends a case in court. They also do research and paperwork.
In this case, "presents" should not carry an "s." The correct form is "presents" as it is a present tense verb used with "opportunity" as the subject.
