Not completely. This prosecution has broken him financially

Great.

So now it's considered "justice" to be financially ruined by a prosecution that results in a not guilty verdict?

Apparently.

Yes. Rule Number One is that the government is never accountable.

It's actually funny that anyone would take that stance. There have been plenty of cases over the years that excused the murderous acts of white supremacists/racists based on the fact that they were found "not guilty" by a jury of their peers. Are you actually making the claim that jury verdicts are infallible? Is it your position that second guessing a verdict is somehow subverting justice?

No, I do not consider that to be justice.

My response was specifically directed to the poster who said that Jackson got off scot free. There was nothing free about this trial for Jackson.
