成年犯 meaning in English

adult prisoner

And i have been not a little hesitant as to whether there should be any distinction on account of age or no difference between the very young and the more mature ; whether pardon is to be granted for repentance , or , if a man has once been a christian , it does him no good to have ceased to be one ; whether the name itself , even without offences , or only the offences associated with the name are to be punished
此外，臣对于年幼者与成年犯之间量刑是否应予区别；对于忏悔者是否应予宽恕- -曾身为基督徒者一旦退出是否应予优渥；未曾犯罪之基督徒与彼等之犯罪者，何者当受惩处，臣心中于此几点大存疑惑。
