* ''Series/{{Sadakatsiz}}'': Ali almost always gets scot-free despite his worsening behavior thanks to his parent being divorced and neither wanting to alienate their son. Ali's mother Asya was always the one to discipline Ali but that caused the kid to rather his father have his full custody. Since then, Asya's method of educating him is to scold him but never really ground him. She tries to reach out to him but Ali's tendency to just leave or tell her he doesn't want to talk tends to render this tactic moot. On his part, Ali's father Volkan only scolds Ali when he's being blatantly disrespectful and, even then, tends to leave it at that. Worse even, whenever Volkan stands something to gain from Ali's rebellious behavior, he actually encourages/manipulates the kid to keep doing so. The only time Ali gets grounded is when he lies about his stepfather-to-be Aras hitting him. Even then, he only gets his electronics rights revoked for like two weeks. So, it's {{justified|Trope}} but PlayedForDrama because this failure to teach the kid limits backfires as he grows more alienated from his parents and puts himself in more dangerous situations every time. It also doesn't help that his family is very well-off, so the school and the law cannot touch him either.

** Captain Atkinson in [[AC:"[[Recap/AngelS02E14TheThinDeadLine The Thin Dead Line]]" (2x14)]] raises a bunch of fallen cops as zombies and uses them to kill anyone remotely criminal or connected to criminals in any way. When the good guys get close to the truth, he sends the zombies to massacre everyone in a teen shelter just to cover his tracks. For the same reason, he shoots Angel. The idol he's using to do this is destroyed, but nothing much happens to him. He keeps his job, and lodges a complaint against Kate for "extra-official vigilantism", which leads to her being fired.

** Dexter. While it's all in the service of the community (as he sees it) and while it gives him no end of trouble, he does kill people and avoid getting caught. He even got to pin most of his murders on Doakes. In the series finale, Dexter :fakes his death and starts a new life elsewhere, and his dark secrets are never even exposed. However, many fans consider the fact that he lost everyone he cared about and must spend the rest of his life in isolation a FateWorseThanDeath. It's eventually subverted in the miniseries ''Series/DexterNewBlood'' which has him return to killing and eventually being shot dead.
