Today’s: Legal Advise / Column
With the Kings order, any man found burying the corpse of the traitor would be publicly stoned to death. This is the first law of our newly founded King. All are advised to obey new law since it is the first of many to come from our newly founded King Creon.
Antigone has gone against the Kings new law, seeking proper burial for her slain brother.
News of Antigone's defiance to the king’s law has become a legal nightmare. With a member of the royal family discarded the law of the new king who else will follow in the same footsteps? The king threats for a public stoning of anyone who breaks this law became voided. Antigone was sentenced differently, which is also not good for the king’s public view. After the events of Antigone and all the recent deaths of the royal family, King Creon's rule has become tattered. The court and laws of Thebes will never be the same as it once was, unless a new ruler comes to power.
