Kill them, take them to superiors for judgement, keep them or let them go for a second chance. The last two are the risky ones and by doing so, he'd be betting his paladinhood that they will not commit more evil acts. Some paladins are willing to place more personal risk for their beleifs. Other than that, in a world with palatable evil as a natural and objective force, creatures, including babies with no reasonable expectation of reforming or adhereing to societies laws, it would be justifiable to put then to death. Even human children. If a paladin ran across a cause like Sawney Bean and his family of cannibals (google it if you don't know what I'm talking about), if there were children that detected as evil, it is reasonable that they have committed enough evil acts even if their life has been short to be sentenced as an adult. Given a just afterlife, i see no reason to penalize a paladin for acting within the law to despose of evil even if not the most exalted of possible paths.</blockquote>
