What is 'turpitude'?

  1. A legal term for theft

  2. Everything done contrary to justice, honesty, modesty or good morals

  3. A type of legal document

  4. An outdated legal punishment

The correct answer is: Everything done contrary to justice, honesty, modesty or good morals

The other options are incorrect because they either do not accurately define 'turpitude' or are not related to the concept of 'turpitude' at all. Option A only refers to one aspect of turpitude which is theft, but turpitude is a broader concept that encompasses many different actions. Option C refers to a legal document, which is not related to a moral concept like turpitude. Lastly, option D refers to a type of legal punishment which is not the same as the definition of turpitude.
