Go unpunished
Do The Examiner USA:
''Since then, comics have changed. There are still the classics – Spider-Man, Batman, Flash, Conan, X-Men…but others have come in. There are comics like Preacher, The Dark Knight, The Walking Dead, Thirty Days of Night, Dogwitch, and others that are known for their violence, the possibility of evil triumphing over good, and criminals who go unpunished [criminosos que ficam impunes] or are punished in non-traditional ways that don’t involve any law and order.''

There's an expression I've learned.. "to get away with murder"
It's to escape without being caught, not to be punished for what one has done, etc.
He cheated on me twice, but he could get away with murder. Except for the third time.
