He suggests that "the guilty are liable to punishment, whereas the innocent are not" making the punishment of the innocent manifestly unjust, therefore the innocent should face no prospect of being punished; and Blackstone's Ratio is a means to this end. He has, however, criticised the fact that Blackstone's ratio offers a static burden of proof, wherein prosecuting someone facing trial for a $ 10 fine would require the same standard of evidence as prosecuting someone facing the death penalty—under Blackstone's ratio at least. He comments: "If the tolerance for wrongful convictions varied based on the punishment, it would more accurately track our—or at least my—moral intuitions", and suggests that the greater the consequence of a guilty verdict, the greater the standard of proof required.

If this is true, if Russia and her justice are such, she may go forward with good cheer! Do not try to scare us with your frenzied troikas from which all the nations stand aside in disgust. Not a runaway troika, but the stately chariot of Russia will move calmly and majestically to its goal. In your hands is the fate of my client, in your hands is the fate of
Russian justice. You will defend it, you will save it, you will prove that there are men to watch over it, that it is in good hands!”

that innocence should be protected, than it is, that guilt should be punished; for guilt and crimes are so frequent in the world, that all of them cannot be punished; and many times they happen in such a manner, that it is not of much consequence to the public, whether they are punished or not. But when innocence itself, is brought to the bar and condemned, especially to die, the subject will exclaim, it is immaterial to me, whether I behave well or ill; for virtue itself, is no security. And if such a sentiment as this, should take place in the mind of the subject, there would be an end to all security what so ever.

The immediate precursors of
Blackstone's ratio in English law were articulations by Hale (about 100 years earlier) and Fortescue (about 300 years before that), both influential jurists in their time. Hale wrote: "for it is better five guilty persons should escape unpunished, than one innocent person
