Scents and Evidence
With  Tracking toggled on  Scents will appear when at the location where someone commits a Crime. Right-clicking a Scent and selecting "Gather Evidence" will gather Evidence of the Crime if it is a Summonable Crime and 180 minutes of time which can be used to track the Criminal if they are online, the stolen item if there is one, or the Criminal's Homestead. Each additional Scent gathered up adds 180 additional minutes of tracking time. Scents will remain for a length of time relative to the severity of the Crime.
Evidence persists indefinitely, although it can no longer be used if the Criminal is dead, or if that Criminal has already been placed in the Stocks for that same Crime. To check if the Criminal is dead, select your Evidence and right-click it on the ground.

Stocks
Right-clicking on the Judge in Providence gives you three options. Selecting "View Court Records" allows you to see your Justice Points as well as the Justice Points leaderboard. Selecting "Negotiate Release" no longer works. Selecting "Request Judgement" will change your icon into a gavel. For a fee of 500x  Silver Pieces you can click the gavel on any Summonable  Evidence in your Inventory to Judge that Evidence as Guilty. Additionally you can select  His Majesty's Displeasure and right-click it onto the Evidence to have the same effect, this method does not cost any Silver Pieces or even require interaction with the Judge.
Once criminal Evidence has been Judged to be Guilty, with the Sanctioned Mortification Skill learned, you may select that Evidence and right-click in onto an open Stock and select "Humiliate" to send the Guilty criminal to the Stocks. Being sent to the Stocks will cause you to drop your entire Inventory! Once in the Stocks a criminal will be subject to Insanity, Disease, Whipping, and having Rotten Food thrown at them for up to 24 hours.
WARNING! Any criminal who is Knocked Out while in the Stocks will Permanently Die.
After 24 hours a criminal will be set free, however a criminal can be set free much earlier, after just 2 hours, by purchasing  His Majesty's Pardon from His Majesty's Stall or a  Writ of Habeas Corpus, and right-clicking it on their Stockade and selecting "Set Free".
