You may have concluded that crime+punishment should have nothing to do with determinism/free will, and that conclusion is IMHO a good one. But in the real world, crime+punishment do have a lot to do with determinism/free will. Our philosophy and our legal system is riddled with explicit statements about the issue. That is why we call it “crime and punishment” instead of “crime and prevention”. See my post, Crime and Punishment.
