If you applaud this sort of behavior by cops and prosecutors

I only wish to point out that such behavior may be inspired by a justice system that has not been dispensing justice.

Lincoln said that nothing is settled until it is justly settled, and when the legal system paroles the most brutal murderers after a few years or fails to convict them in the first place, then one might expect people like cops who have been pushed too far by seeing things that jurors and judges and the public do not see, to get certain slime bags off the streets before they strike again.

So I ask, how much of an angel was this guy before he was sent to jail for the one brutal crime that he apparently didn't do?

I'd like to know if he had raped some kid and then cut off her arms and then was paroled after ten years for good behavior before he was locked up for something he didn't do.

It does not matter one way or the other what someone may have done previously. If he did NOT do the crime for which he was wrongly convicted, if he was railroaded by cops and prosecutors with an attitude like yours, then THEY should be where HE is, doing the FULL SENTENCE, no time off.

His qualfications for an angelic halo do not count in this case. So take you tripe and peddle it elsewhere. Convicting someone of a crime he did not commit just in case he may have done something ELSE is the lowest of the low... I pray you have NOTHING to do with the "justice" system anywhere in this country.

"such behavior may be inspired by a justice system that has not been dispensing justice."

And that justifies coercing a confession of guilt from the innocent??? Are we to believe that it is acceptable to jail someone for crimes he MAY have committed now, even though it is certain he didn't commit the crime for which he is imprisoned?
