Jackson Aquited I guess it pays to be a ce
jh45gun, your probally right. But the fact remains it's the states responsibility to prove guilt,, PROVE guilt! The state didn't do it in the O.J. trial, they knew they couldn't so tried him in the court of public opinion. They won there but lost in the court that count's. Not to worry, we'll just try him again for the same crime by changing the charge we call it. You put lipstick on a pig and it's still a pig, that was double jeporidy! I didn't hear anyone screaming about O.J.'s right's, how come? Oh yea, we're gonna get the rick collard guy that hit his wife, any port in a storm. Maybe O.J. did it and maybe he didn't. The question that needs answered is this. Is it alright with anyone that everything that happened to O.J. after the discovery of the bodies, happens to you in a like situtation? I doubt that but then we know O.J. did it, right? Knew it right from the start!
And how about Scott Peterson? The prosecution admitted their case was totally, TOTALLY, circumstantial. Not a problem, whatever the state van sell to a jury is ok, proof be damned.
We should quit blaming the guys we think got away with something and start telling out cops and prosecutors that they can no longer railroad anyone, suddenly they have to prove their accusations. The next guy that gets railroaded down there just may be you. Who you gonna scream to?
Sometimes protecting YOUR rights means letting a bad guy go. The state of Cal. likes to try the accused in the news first for some reason. They did it to O.J., Scott Peterson and Michael Jackson. I don't know if any of them are guilty but look at what happened to each and whos the only guy convicted? A guy like most of us, not rich. And convicted totally on circumstantial evidence. That what you want???
