CHALLENGE: Law

... In the cosmic justice system, there are two separate yet equally important constants: the Doctor, last of the race that policed time, and the Captain, the perpetual challenge to the laws of reality. We write their stories....

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, consider the following evidence:

"Good men don’t need rules… Today is not the day to find out why I have so many."

"I'm not exactly breaking the laws of time, but I am bending them a little."

"The laws of time are mine!"

"I want to see the universe, not rule it!"

The Doctor's Rules


and, famously,

"We're separate from the government, outside the police, beyond the United Nations."

The Doctor and Jack Harkness, ladies and gentlemen. Law breakers? Vigilantes? Keepers of the cosmic order? This month, we leave it in your hands to decide. Welcome to the Law Challenge, members of the jury. Breaking the law, subject to its whims, or laying it down, this month, we're asking you to tell us what happens - or tell us what happened. Are they guilty? Are they innocent? Was there justifiable cause? Or are they the ones bringing some other lawbreaker into line? We can't wait to find out.

As a gentle reminder, please don't crosspost stories for this challenge elsewhere until the challenge closes about one month from now. And don't forget - leave a comment in THIS post and tell us what you think the next challenge should be!
