The United Federation takes a very low-tolerance stance towards crime - there are no prisons. We use a system known as the "Cooplings Offense Severity Identification System", or COSIS, invented by the first Law Councillor, Dennis Cooplings. The COSIS system indicates how many times a certain crime must be committed before the offender is executed or banished. The COSIS system works in Levels - the lower the number, the more severe the crime is. The Level number directly correlates with how many times the crime must be committed before the final action is taken to ensure the crime is not committed again - this could entail execution, or loss of citizenship and banishment.


Level 1 Offenses - All offenses under this category will result in execution after a Level 1 offense is committed once

- Murder
- Adultery
- Open belief in Communism
- Open belief in Fascism
- Attempted murder (Could include severe cases of Child Abuse)
- Treason
- Receiving or Performing an Abortion

Level 2 Offenses - All offenses under this category will result in execution after a Level 2 offense is committed twice. If a Level 2 offense has been committed once, a 700,000 or greater credit fine will be issued.

- Arson
- Manslaughter
- Fraud
- Assault (Includes Child Abuse)
- Rape
- Non-consensual slavery/Human trafficking
- Kidnapping

Level 3 Offenses - All offenses under this category will result in execution after a Level 3 offense is committed three times. If a Level 3 offense has been committed less than three times, a 250,000 or greater credit fine will be issued.

- Acts of Pedophilia
- Computer Hacking
- Home Invasion without Intent to Harm
- Industrial Espionage
- Bestiality
- Drug Trafficking
- Attempt to Commit Crime
- Sabotage

Level 4 Offenses - All offenses under this category will result in execution or loss of citizenship and banishment after a Level 4 offense has been committed four times. If a Level 4 offense has been committed less than four times, a 150,000 or greater credit fine will be issued.

- Use of Recreational Narcotics
- Failure to Install Air Conditioning - Applicable to both private homes and businesses
- Insider Trading
- Advertising a Fabrication as Truth - Corporation Executives Only
- Conspiracy to Commit Crime

Level 5 Offenses - All offenses under this category will result in execution or loss of citizenship and banishment after a Level 5 offense has been committed five times. If a Level 5 offense has been committed less than five times a 100,000 or greater credit fine will be issued.

- Petty Theft
- Obstruction or Perversion of the Course of Justice

Level 6 Offenses - All offenses under this category will result in execution or loss of citizenship and banishment after a Level 6 offense has been committed six times. If a Level 6 offense has been committed less than six times, a 20,000 or greater credit fine will be issued.

- Discrimination on the Basis of: Gender, Race, Sexual Orientation, Religion, Age, and Disability.
- Vehicle Related Offenses
- Crimes Against the Public

Level 7 Offenses - All offenses under this category will result in loss of citizenship and banishment after a Level 7 offense has been committed seven times. If a Level 7 offense has been committed less than seven times, a 1,000 or greater credit fine will be issued.

- Failure to Carry a Loaded Firearm in Public
- Failure to Possess Sufficient Firearms with Ammunition

How and why do you execute?

Federal law prescribes the death penalty for crimes such as treason, espionage, murder, etc... The law in most States does likewise.

In most States, capital punishment is administered by the electric chair, hanging, or a firing squad. Federal executions are presently carried out via hanging, or a firing squad.

The government prisons have an old world eye for eye morality, but lately private prisons have started to replace them. And the punishment has become more reasonable, capital punishment is now only used for the most heinous of crimes.

Rehabilitation is the focus of most prisons. Violent repeat-offenders are punished, but are rarely executed. Death by firing squad or hanging are the methods used, and are reserved for the most heinous traitors.

All criminals, no matter what the crime, are subject to free-for-all death matches with a 10 minute time limit, no weapons, only hands and feet. If one man survives, he will be sentenced to be a miner in a uranium mine for the rest of his life, however, if not everyone is dead by the 10 minute mark, they will all be killed by means of a controlled nuclear blast, all for the entertainment of our population.

Capital Punishment is very much in use. Country-wide, decapitation and hanging are seen as the most practical and simple methods and therefore are the standards.

The only thing we execute is a criminal's free will. We control their minds and let nanobots devour them, thus making them one of us. All the more useful to have another man on the warzone/workforce/etc.

In Confectrix, we only execute for two offenses anymore; Mass Murder without Victims' Consent, and Treason by Means of Assassination. We allow the general populace to decide whether they live or die (after a fair trial, of course), and then give the offender the choice in their death. Their requests are carried out (to a reasonable extent).

It is our policy to execute criminals when their cost to society exceeds their benefit to society. In short, if they aren't able to provide sufficient compensation for their acts, we execute them. The method of execution is traditionally shooting in the head, but it is actually traditional to permit the condemned their choice of reasonable-cost expedition execution. However, it is up to the condemned to actually remember and invoke this: Nobody actually asks: You have to indicate in advance how you wish to be executed, otherwise we'll just quickly shoot you, and your victims will then sell your stuff and your organs on the Internet.

Execution is used for a number of offences. Beheading by sword is used on noblemen and other higher ranking members of society (such as priests and mages). Mages are first cast upon by magick to ensure that they have no 'immortality' enchantments on their souls before the execution takens place. Peasants and commoners are executed by hanging.

Trials-by-combat and duels may sometimes (often) end in the death of one or both of the participants, however these are not considered forms of execution.
