This history documentary series covers Law & Order in Ancient Rome. The combined episode includes the following chapters:
00:00 Introduction
02:57 The Law
16:06 The Courts
29:25 The Prisons
39:55 The Police
53:36 The Peace in the Provinces
In the first chapter we consider the very foundation of Law & Order by examining the Law itself. We cover this subject by tracing its chronological evolution from the Roman Monarchy to the Roman Republic and finally the Roman Empire.
In the second chapter we examine how laws were interpreted and applied by Rome's judicial system as over the years. This includes the emergence of many aspects of Roman justice like judges, lawyers, juries, and more which will seem very familiar to us today.
In the third chapter we look at the practice of prisons which did indeed exist but served a far smaller role than our own form of mass incarceration today.
In the fourth chapter we turn our attention to Law Enforcement in Ancient Rome which included such elements as the Vigiles, the Praetorian Guard, and more.
And finally we conclude with the fifth chapter which addresses the wider law and order across the Empire.

    Important note about the jury courts: depending on the time, juries were not just anyone. For most of the system’s use, a juror had to be an equestrian or higher in social class. This means someone whose wealth was about 600,000 sesterces.

    1:07:04 *Fun fact:* Speaking of Pontius Pilate, the aprocrypal Gospel of Nicodemus contains a letter that Pilate wrote to the future emperor Claudius. That letter, which is about the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, probably served as the proof that Claudius needed to know that neither his nephew Caligula nor his friend King Herod Agrippa was the Messiah, unlike what both men previously claimed to be to assert their authority.

    The court system was incredibly political during the republican system. Like you said to advance one’s careers young prominent men would frequent them and study. I believed they called themselves advocates and usually would represent the parties respective especially foreigners. For instance Caesar’s case for masintha. Roman’s commonly would tried to associate themselves with more prestigious people and typically the courts would be a demonstration of differing political bodies.

    depends on what you did, if your crime was bad enough you'd definitely face pursuit. Not to mention that, in terms of the courts, the attitude was basically more guilty until proven innocent. In other words, the burden of proof was often much lower. In some cases, simply having someone of high status testify against you (as even a character witness) was enough to get you hanged

    If anybody is interested in reading book series about crime I can recommend John Robert Maddox "SPQR" Lindsey Davies "Didius Falco" Both series are fiction of course, that take place in ancient Rome. Maddox sometimes uses historical facts and refers to them in his books (e.g. the famous "Ceasars wife must be above all suspicion" statement). Maddox character is a senator, Davies Falco is lower on the social ladder (but has several dealings with the royal palace too) Both series are very good reads IMO and the historical background is fine. However, the reader must be aware that they are fiction - and they do not intend or pretend to be historical correct. I myself had a lot of fun with both series and was never put off by the behavior of the characters. Sure, Falcos dealing with Titus is nonsense, but it is fun to read. For comparision: The HBO series "Rome" was a damn disaster to me, because it was so full of historical bullshit that I did not manage to ignore all this nonsense and enjoy the show. So I do have some expectations when a series / book takes place in the time of the Romans. Most will probably say way too high expectations. So if you like to read books about detectives and if you like ancient Rome - give it a try, I am very confident you will enjoy them :)

Many are released with little prospects and have often just come out more broken and criminally minded than when they went in. Treat people with dignity like other countries and you get a far better chance of rehabilitation and not a revolving door in and out of prison.

    The revolving door is what the government wants, for that reason it's called the prison industrial complex. It's also good at stripping away American's 'rights'.

    Corporal punishment is more humane than long-term incarceration. The Biblical system is best: Financial crimes have financial punishments, you pay back a few times what you took or if a corrupt businessman who ruins the livelihoods of many work as a debt-slave to pay your victims what you can after your assets are liquidated; Violent crimes have violent punishments - an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, beating for beating, wound for wound; and heinous crimes are punished capitally.

    Well , considering NO system in the history of prisons has ever been about rehab ... whats your point ? If prison alone isnt enough to give someone all of the "rehab" they need then my guess is they wouldnt rehab regardless of what was offered to them .

    @@Insectoid_ Yep , a degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Corrections , which makes me an informed idiot , thank you very much . I spent two years going to classes on this specific topic (History/Focus of the Penal System) but please , tell me your youtube level opinion on the topic . Sorry but FACTS are FACTS , the penal system has ALWAYS been about punishment NOT rehab . The system in place now is the first to even consider rehab a real factor . WHERE do you think the saying "they paid their debt to Society" came from ? Rehab was never a factor , period , that is a recent (last hundred years) development in Corrections . NOT defending the issues in the present system you mentioned in your original post but do not pretend it is presently any different in ANY prison in the world today , MOST are much worse than any prison you will find in the US . Just for curiosities sake , ever bother to check Inmate Death numbers compared by Country ? Would you rather go to a prison in the US or a prison in Mexico ? What about Russia ? China ? Japan ? Seriously take your pick .... US or ANYWHERE else , which would you personally prefer ?

    Great history, just need to improve your pronounciations. eg: It's not "ple-bian". It's "plebe-ian". Because the people were Plebes. and "ian" is ending. That's why we say, eg, "centur-ion" not "centu-rion". Nor Cana-dian.
