Declan's lost his home, position and family himself. No-one forced him to burn his house down and commit insurance fraud, no-one forced him to marry Chaity when he knew full well she was manipulative and didn't want more children, no-one forced him to go crazy and go on the run. He made all those choices himself. And just because he thought he was a poor victim of Charity's so called evil it didn't give him the right to try and kill her. He got himself into his own mess and then he ran away from that mess and left Charity to deal with the aftermath. I doubt he's somewhere suffering, he'll have set up a new life for himself and be living it up - so yea, he's gotten away with everything.
Jai has not been injured more than Charity - he wasn't locked up, terrified for days, starved and chained up. I doubt anyone would rather have been in Charity's position than Jai's little tumble down the stairs and a coma for a couple of days in a comfortable bed, surrounded by his loved ones.
Sam losing Rachel because of Charity (who btw he forgot immediately when some other girl came in the picture) is not the same as leaving someone for dead in a tin box. At least Charity was remorseful for the bad she'd done to Sam and tried to make it up to him, whereas Sam isn't guilty whatsoever for the evil he did to her and no doubt, he'll still act like the victim and as if Charity is the evil one. Er no, both are awful, but Sam to me is much worse.
