The pleas and wailing for the rights of the guilty are beyond ridiculous.
Star, this guy wasn't even a goddamn suspect for crying out loud... nobody has even been charged, let alone been found guilty.
The law and justice system provides society with a framework for organization and civil living conditions.
I'm with you Star...
It doesn't supercede nature and human life.
I have no idea what that even means in regards to this thread.
Life will continue to exist with or without the law. We need it to protect and serve.
Actually "to protect and serve" is merely enforcing the law... without the LAW, the system of
law enforcement is chaotic.
However, it is an innate function of human behavior to react to stimuli. Many times, if someone sees a person being attacked, they will intercede and save the victim; despite what some here will have you think. There are some members of society that will indulge the human instinct of assisting the victim with or without the police.
Star you are talking about a hypothetical situation which has no real bearing on the events that this thread is about. Nobody saw her being raped... and nobody came to her aid.
What really happened is that the local news station ran the guys picture and said that the police were looking for him and he was a PERSON OF INTEREST.
Of course, the police department obviously doesn't know the difference between a suspect, target, subject and "person of interest".
A "person of interest" has no definition by the U.S. Department of Justice... and most cases involving "persons of interest" result in mistrials and usually end up with the "person of interest" receiving a large settlement from the government agency involved in the investigation.
Any lawyer can get this guy off now... but the cops have been interrogating him while he is in his hospital bed trying to see if they can tie him to a bunch of unsolved rapes in the area.
Fucking lazy cops... always trying to tie a bunch of unrelated cases together and pin them on one guy so they can look like they actually
solve crime.
Also, if Joe is poking Sam's wife, it does not make Sam a bad person to beat the piss out of Joe. That is what he deserves. And in a court of his peers, I doubt Sam would be looking at much punishment.
Well, Sam will be paying ALL of Joe's medical bills and better not have any prior charges for assault on his record. There is no law that protects men from prosecution for beating up their spouse's lovers... not one in any single state.
And there will never be one, because violence in wrong... two wrongs doth not maketh a right.
