 * Violations are triggered when a catch block does nothing but throw the original exception. In this scenario there is
 * usually no need for a catch block, just let the exception be thrown from the original code. This condition frequently
 * occurs when catching an exception for debugging purposes but then forgetting to take the catch statement out.
