The defender of the Palsgraf perspective might respond that Bessie is foreseeable under a suitably generic description (say, “an owner of that building, whomever he or she may be”).48 But this sense of victim foreseeability seems strained and artificial — and this response makes a hash, therefore, of other explanatory roles that victim foreseeability plays in legal and moral thought. Imagine, for example, that a construction mogul wishes to build a shopping center. To do so, she must engage in some blasting that will likely destroy a nearby (currently uninhabited) residence that reasonably appears to be owned solely by Abelard. Absent exigent circumstances, it is justifiable and nonculpable for the construction mogul to proceed if and only if she is reasonably certain that she has obtained the consent of Abelard. That is because Abelard is the only foreseeable owner of the building. Even if there exists some other, hidden, owner of the building (call him Baldwin), that fact is plainly irrelevant to whether it is justifiable and nonculpable for the construction mogul to risk destroying the residence. It is irrelevant precisely because Baldwin is not, in any natural or independently plausible sense of the term, a foreseeable victim (supposing his existence cannot be ascertained with reasonable diligence).
