This is why - at least for the unelected ones - that a condition for employment of prosecutors would be a psychological profile. Our current justice system is too uneven in its outcomes and intent, especially, to be elevating people with massive character flaws to positions where they have so much power over the lives…

I started watching when they see us and got 40 minutes in to the first episode before I started bawling and had to shut it off. I will finish it because I think it is important but holy shit it broke me.

You’d think the ken burns doc about the Central Park Five would have been enough to convince some people, but I guess they needed a netflix series in order to change their mind about this terrible person.

Still.  To this day.  She has the audacity to stay in that position.  How does she look at herself in the mirror each day?  She knows she committed an atrocity as she had internet searches “scrubbed” so that she would no longer be associated with the case.  Dishonest and Cowardly do not even to justice to describe…

Korey Wise wasn’t even in the park that day. F001

Yeah. If all black people are from Africa, should I take it to mean all three of these dudes are from Europe? They’re clearly not the beneficiaries of the better education systems, nor do they take any kind of pride in their appearances. 

I was there in Harlem when they filmed that scene. There were a group of locals that didn’t know who Bruce Willis was. They really thought he was a racist because he was outside the trailer walking to his mark. Funny.

Just a criminally underrated film, I can’t decide if those scenes in the beginning are better with time. Certainly, Zeus’s advice to the two children is timeless truth.

I always find it interesting that Citizens of Mayopolis call out folks of African descent like we CHOSE to come here (number one) and forget (number two) that it very damn well likely that Our Ancestors have been here longer than theirs.

A Die-hard 3 scenario?

No instead of jail I think we need to come up with more unique ways to punish these types. Since they seem to want to fight so badly what they should do is drop them off in a part of town with you know “those types” and tell the locals what they did. I am sure “those types” would be more than welcoming to these three.…

“Police lied to their frightened suspects, asserting that they already had been implicated in the rape of the jogger by others also under interrogation. The cops were using a then accepted interrogation technique resulting in what some forensic psychologists refer to as “coerced-compliant false confessions.” https://ww…

“the questioning [of the Central Park Five] was respectful, dignified, carried out according to the letter of the law and with sensitivity to the young age of the men”

Evil comes in all forms. I’m glad that I’m empathetic enough to not have even the thought of something like this in me. How you could do this to anyone, let alone kids is beyond me.

Just as a reminder, the lead prosecutor (Elizabeth Lederer) is a trial advocacy professor at Columbia university school of law. She’s literally responsible for one of the greatest miscarriages of justice but nonetheless teaches students about the best practices of running trials

I know but this troll has been asking for this shit for too long and others need to clown his ass. The DNA showed that there was a 1 in 6,000,000 chance the rapist was someone other than Reyes and adding in the other evidence and omissions it was clear that all five of them had nothing to do with it. I know…

Hey, by responding to this post you brought him out of the greys.  Best practices are if you have to respond, take a screenshot and reply to yourself.

Bruh taking you out of the grey’s is what your sorry ass wants so I won’t repeat anything I’ll just direct you to Wikipedia so your dumb ass can learn something: Oh please go the part under confession and read carefully. That is if you can take your head out of your ass. The Armstrong Report was laughed at due to the…

I saw the Kalief Browder doc and it was very sad to see that his horror was similar to Korey Wise. Nothing changed since 1989 and I doubt anything will. 

As if the GOP would ever run a female candidate.
