Find out about the punishments inflicted to the small and great criminals of the past. Follow Francoise Laurent, wife of a French torturer, or John Irvine, a British-born Jurist and wander through suspicious spots of ill-repute by lanternlight. Become the judges of the crimes committed in those days : duel, robbery, plunder, murder…

Discover the life of the criminals: their crimes, Quebec City's jail and the physical punishment they must face. Understand why both the French and British regimes in Quebec were enforcing a strong criminal justice system!
