#1 I have long considered this an "artists privilege" case. That is, back when Italy was the artistic capital of the world, there was a general acceptance that artists were inclined to sexual mischief--that it was just part of their being artists.

Typically, an artist would be having an affair with some married woman when her husband came home, and in the ensuing melee, the artist would kill the husband. While anyone else would be tried for murder, the Italian authorities would permit the artist to flee to some other city state.

The attitude was that people come and go, but art survives us all. And thus, in a way, it was a bit more important.
