Candide has murdered three men. In my opinion, he deserved to die but he is LUCKY that he was only robbed of all the fortune he gathered in Eldorado. Especially since the wages if his crimes back then was death (by being burned alive at the stake).
Candide, at the beginning was innocent and some if his actions were excusable. And we can even let his first murder slide. But when he killed that first man... I know he felt something inside of him, and I know it felt wrong. Not to mention he was running away from possible punishment (which tells us that he certainly knew it was wrong). So with that being said, he had to have known murder is wrong by the time he killed man #2.
