Red: True, but I'm speaking about outside the city-state proper. The provinces all work together in contributing to the enforcement of common law outside the city-state boundaries, so Elven Rangers pair up with the Centaurs in the North Ranges, even though it's not part of their province, and so forth. So basically he would actually live a little longer if he DID get into capital territory, if only because he'd be thrown in a hole for a few days before his sentence was carried out. In the free territories they don't bother with such formalities.
