Even though there is no direct effect of their actions, their wrongdoing would eventually pay off the price for misusing human trust. Maybe lies are necessary, for example, Huck tells a lie to the slave traders to save a life of his best friend Jim. But when this is used in a bad way, it produces dishonesty and distrust in the society. Therefore, people like the "king" and the "duke" should be arrested and punished.
