Remarkable. The last isaw ofthat ship, she was onir. A blackened hull sinking beneath the waves. We had a deal, Jack l contracted you to deliver cargo on my behalf, you chose to liberate it People aren't cargo, mate Andyou incurred a heavy debt to raise her up again, didn't you? Jack was employed into service for the East India Trading Company and was given command of the Wicked Wench. However, after he set free a cargo of slaves, his employer, Cutler Beckett, had Jack branded as a pirate and the Wench set aflame and sunk. After failing to rescue the Wench, Sparrow struck a bargain with the ghostly captain of the Flying Dutchman, Davy Jones, to resurrect his beloved vessel. Jones returned the ship to Jack in near perfect condition except for the permanently charred hull. This prompted Jack to rename her the Black Pearl (via) Jack Sparrow just got way cooler. BABE Yo, this is why Norrington said he's the "worst pirate I've ever heard of," and then Jack followed it up with, "But you have heard of me." Because Jack was branded a Pirate because he freed people rather than stealing anything. So Norrington, with his sense of duty, knows that Jack has been branded a criminal for actively not being a terrible human being. Norrington is torn between his duty as a naval officer and knowing that Jack is right He freed exactly 100 people, that's why his debt to Jones was 100 souls. Davy has a sick sense of irony after all. Jack freed 100 souls and as a consequence his ship got sunk. Now his ship has been raised and as a consequence, he has to enslave 100 souls. This explains his reluctance to actually pay back the debt. VIA THEMETAPICTURE.COM

Part of Jack's allure as a character is his moral ambiguity. I think if they had explored this plot thread it would have shifted him from "might get around to doing the right thing…if he feels like it" to "officially a good guy." Just my hypothesis, anyways.

Or at the end when he’s about to be hung, and the guy has a literal laundry list of his offences.
"The crimes for which you are to be hanged include: three cotton shirts, two pairs of ugly striped shots, a full set of king-size bedsheets, half a dozen pairs of underwear…"
