A way for The Hero to dispose of a villain without getting blood on his hands. Rather than the hero doing justice onto the villain (or what have you) himself, he decides to do it indirectly, by leaving him in the not-so-good hands of someone with fewer qualms about... harsh justice. Note that this is the hero's doing; this does not apply to the common situation of a villain leaving the hero at the mercy of his Mooks. Do with Him as You Will, where The Hero turns the villain over to the villain's former victims, is a subtrope of this. All instances of that should go on that page, not this one. Or if the hero leaves the villain to other villains, Bad Guys Do the Dirty Work is in play. Exit, Pursued by a Bear is different in that not only are the "wolves" in question actual animals, they act without the hero's input. In short, it's in the middle of the Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism; The Hero doesn't actually kill the Big Bad, and the Big Bad gets a Karmic Death... but one that The Hero throws them into. May be a subtrope of Murder by Inaction. For cases where someone is literally being served up as a meal to a hungry creature, see Fed to the Beast. As a way for a villain to meet their demise, this can easily be a Death Trope. Expect unmarked spoilers. |

DEATH BATTLE!: In "Rick Sanchez vs. The Doctor", the two accidentally end up in a room filled with Weeping Angels at one point. The Doctor gives intentionally faulty advice to Rick (who's trying to kill him) by telling him to blink rapidly where in fact the Angels Can't Move While Being Watched, in the hopes that the Weeping Angels get him. Rick falls for it and is attacked, but thanks to either Operation Phoenix or having methods to escape from the past (which the Angels send their victims to), it doesn't stick. | |

Harry Potter: In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry convinces Lupin and Sirius to spare the traitorous Wormtail's life, arguing that the friend they wanted to avenge (Harry's father) wouldn't have wanted them to become murderers. Wormtail obsequiously thanks Harry for his mercy, only for Harry to snap back that he fully intends to turn him over to the Dementors. Of course, in the Wizarding World, the Dementors are the justice system, so it's really the only other option. In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Hermione arranges for Umbridge to face centaur justice. |

A Judge Dee story ends with the bad guy confessing freely admitting his murders. Being of the Screw the Rules, I Have Connections! type, any accusation would end with him getting away free and destroying the judge's career, so the judge fools him into entering a small courtyard containing a bear and locking the door. Said bear was earlier shown to leave those he liked alone and maul the rest, leaving the bad guy some chance. | |

The Closer: In "Good Housekeeping", spoiled rich youth Austin Philips flees south of the border to avoid prosecution for killing the daughter of a Mexican immigrant. Knowing she can't get him extradited, Brenda goes to Mexico to get the full story from him, and he refuses to come back to the US no matter what she tries. Brenda meets him in a Mexican police station and asks him for the story so she can close the case, and offers to drop the accessory charges against his parents. The killer tearfully confesses that he did it by "accident". Then Brenda hands the Mexican cops evidence the victim was actually born in Mexico, not America, which made her a Mexican citizen. As she leaves, Brenda points out that the Mexican justice is not going to go easy on a rich, arrogant gringo who killed a poor Mexican girl. The Mexican cops take Austin into custody despite his sudden pleas to go back to the US with Brenda. | |

Star Wars: The Clone Wars: "Innocents of Ryloth": A droid army led by a tactical droid has been terrorizing a Twi'lek populace. Obi-Wan and some clone troopers fight the tactical droid directly, but get knocked over after it blasts their hijacked gun. It's about to finish off Obi-Wan after gloating when the Twi'lek prisoners he's been terrorizing form a mob, storm onto his tank and rip him to shreds. Obi-Wan covers the eyes of Twi'lek orphan Numa, but she lifts his hand to watch. "Senate Spy": After Separatist-aligned Senator Rush Clovis helps Anakin, R2-D2 and a poisoned Padmé escape from Cato Neimoidia, Anakin leaves him behind to face a displeased Senator Lott Dod and his battle droids. Jealousy is partly to blame, as Anakin did not like that Clovis, who used to be in a relationship with Padmé, was trying to restart it since Padmé can't exactly make her relationship with Anakin, who's not supposed to be married at all, public. |

One of the arcs of Schlock Mercenary has a group of mercs under the leadership of Kevyn get captured by the pirate captain, Commodore Shufgar, who proves remarkably cruel, and successfully kills at least one of them. At the end, when they've turned the tables and captured the captain, the men are all-too-eager to dispense their own, personal justice for their fallen comrade, but Kevyn warns them off, saying that that road leads to "A dark place". | |

NCIS featured one criminal who had killed the boss of his gang and then used phone and text messages to pose as his go-between to the rest of the gang. The team found enough information to show he had committed this and other crimes, but nothing that would get a conviction. Instead, they brought in his gang and showed them the evidence that they had been duped and used by the man who killed their boss, but the law couldn't do anything about it. The criminal is released, and found dead the next day. | |

Lazarevic, the final boss, has finally been defeated, but he pulls an If You Kill Him, You Will Be Just Like Him!, basically telling Drake to gun him down, without hesitation or mercy, since that fits with his own philosophy. Drake, however, refuses, and when Lazarevic gloatingly states that he "does not have the will", Drake just agrees but comments "But THEY do..." and then quickly leaves as about a dozen of the monstrous, nigh-unkillable Guardians of the Tree arrive to tear him to shreds for trespassing on their holy ground. | |

Played with in Margin Play: Kasey does this to the main villain, by letting a gang of gopniki know that the bad guy was responsible for the death of a man they looked up to and respected. The protagonist comments later that there was "just barely enough left to identify him by" when the body was found. It's not entirely a straight use, because Kasey isn't The Hero, but he's more one of the good guys than he is a bad guy. | |

One The Authority story has a Captain America knockoff called The Commander beating the crap out of (and raping) Apollo. At the end, the Commander is paralyzed and taunts Apollo into killing him. Instead of killing him, Apollo just says he promised him to someone else. Said someone else turns out to be Apollo's lover Midnighter, who shows up with a jackhammer. "A pleasure to finally make your acquaintance" indeed. | |

An example in The Killer That Stalked New York where "the wolves" is the criminal justice system. Sheila decides against killing Matt when she discovers that he has killed Moss, telling him that she doesn't have to anymore since he'll be executed for murder. | |

One of Michael's favorites in Burn Notice: Convince the Bastard of the Week to betray his organization, make sure it's done in a way that makes them clearly responsible, and then dump them either with the betrayed or where they can be found. | |
