Special Instructions: "Crime & Punishment" -- the grid and definitions were stolen from yesterday's Telegraph Quick Crossword; as punishment, all of the clueing had to be inextricably tied to said definitions. (*created with the utmost respect)

My gratitude and apologies to the setter of Quick Crossword No. 907. Thank you, and please treat this as a compliment.

Well played tpg! Chewy in parts (for me anyway), but with enough toeholds (e.g. 6d, 9d) to keep me going, before persistence was rewarded with a very neat puzzle and a few absolute gems (12a, 15a, 20a, 14d). Great stuff.

Thanks tpg for the 'Quick' fun. My favourites were 7a, 14a, 1d, 9d, and 14d. Some of the parsing came after the solution went in but that's not unusual for me. Nice work.
