English term or phrase: scale of evil

Barème inventé par le Dr Michael Stone pour mesurer et hiérarchiser les criminels selon plusieurs critères.

"Dr. Michael Stone of Columbia University has created a scale to measure the severity of evil acts. The more heinous the crime--and the more rational the criminal--the higher the killer is ranked on the scale. "

Je ne trouve pas de traduction de ce barème en français. Pouvez-vous m'aider ? Merci !
