Three lullabies in an ancient tongue
And people wonder why I am anti-death penalty? With this type of flawed justice being carried out?

A century ago they would have lynched him. What a travesty. Unfortunately, it happens all too frequently.
 
You gotta love how all that matters to the "justice" system is making a conviction. Whether or not the convicted person is guilty is a whole different matter, they've got their conviction.

Also, why do we allow judges to go around believing they're gods? All judges have a holier-than-thou attitude and they constantly flaunt it. There should be some sort of a system of checks and balances that impedes judges from doing things like dismissing evidence that would result in a mistrial. Theoretically they should follow the law, but most of the time they're on a power trip because they're the ones that make the law according to what suits them at the time.

I hadn't heard of this case before, but, from the article, it seems pretty clear that this guy is innocent, and that the girl is either maliciously trying to screw him, or was too drunk to know what happened, or both. He's pretty much a model citizen, and she's a drunken slut. Both inductively and deductively, I would say that it's pretty clear that he didn't do it. The guilty verdict is just proof that racism in the "justice" system is still very prevalent.

I hope the guy's name is finally cleared.

what the fuck you lookin at?
The street is the only thing that matters. Court is for uptown people with suits, money, lawyers with three names. If you got cash you can buy court justice. But on the street, justice has no price. She's blind where the judge sits but she's not blind out here. Out here the bitch got eyes.

The exact same reason I am against the death penalty & we all should be. This could easily be anyone of us falsely accused by a woman who can't even remember what the hell happened & no DNA evidence that the guy did anything. Actually the little evidence supports the guys story of simply being groped by this drunken ..............

You are from Texas so you may be familiar with the 19 or so overturned convictions in Dallas county ALONE:eek: just in a matter of 7 or 8 years.

reminds me about a story of a local woman I recently read about.

TUCSON, Ariz. - LAWFUEL - The Law News Network - A federal jury has found Mary Elizabeth Schipke, 47, of Oracle, Ariz., guilty of Threatening to Use a Weapon of Mass Destruction. The case was tried before U.S. District Court Judge John M. Roll starting on August 9, 2005 with the guilty verdict delivered on August 12, 2005. The evidence at trial showed that on October 15, 2004, Schipke walked into the U.S. Post Office in Oracle, Ariz. and threatened to blow it up with a bomb.

Well, what actually happened was that she got into a dispute with one of the employees and said, "God, I pray a bomb falls on your stupid, fucking head!"

After being convicted of the charge in 2005 she ended up serving 4 years in prison.

It seems that the charges have to do with her previous convictions, which is also a weird story.

Ok, so it seems that the woman is pretty crazy, which isn't a crime. She believes that "the government is out to get" her and has been very vocal about this as well as other strange things, which is why the post office was so willing to prosecute, regularly having to deal with her causing shit.

OK, so she was being investigated by CPS because of this stuff. For some reason this caused the police to put her under surveillance and tap her phone(?) at which point its then reported that she "made calls to several militia groups" and these unidentified militia groups then showed up at her trailer to engage in a "stand-off" with the SWAT team that had now been sent in. At that point she allowed officers into her home where conflicting accounts say she drew a weapon or she had a gun holstered and then officers removed her child into CPS custody and the "militia group" disbanded without incident (although apparently an unknown person fired a flare into the sky), and she received a charge of assault and threatening an officer...

Still, seems a bit much, would you agree?
