Suppose I know that a particular person is on the run from the law for the accidental death of a child. I know that if he is caught, he will be horribly and gruesomely tortured and suffer a long, slow, excruciatingly painful death.
Which is the lesser evil - to turn him in to the secret police or to help him escape? If I turn him in, I will be complicit in a state-sanctioned killing. If I help him escape, I have let the killer of a child go unpunished.
These things aren't always black and white.
