    Either way it doesn’t matter. The point is- if it is proven that he did it, he should rot. If it is found that he didn’t, he should walk.

    That’s how a justice system is supposed to work.

    We don’t decide who’s guilty or not based on how we feel about the victim.

      If the state can prove that he undoubtedly did it, he should be punished.

      If the state’s case is weak enough to leave some lingering doubts, he should walk.

      The defense doesn’t have to prove anything. Their job is to cast doubt on whatever the state claims.

      That’s how our justice system works.

        Why is this difficult for you to understand.

      By your very own argument, you are highlighting the important part that you are missing. What if the justice system finds out it doesn’t know. Justice is not boolean.

        IF HE DID IT, HE SHOULD ROT. IF HE DIDN’T, HE SHOULD WALK.

        Does every concept of every idea need to be explained around here? It’s a given in the above statement that if he can’t be found guilty- he should walk. Why does this need to be argued?

        My fucking god people need everything spelled out around here. For fuck’s sake.

        So from-

        We don’t decide who’s guilty or not based on how we feel about the victim.

        Your take is that I’m Rittenhouse.

        LOL…

            Ahh… personal attacks now?

            It’s not a case in point against me. It’s makes my point. Rittenhouse was guilty and walked because the case against him couldn’t be proven.

            I said- if Luigi did it- he should rot in prison. If he didn’t he shouldn’t.

            This had nothing to do with whether or not a case could be proven against him. It had to do with how it SHOULD be. Fucking christ! I didn’t think I needed to explain this.

            If he did it- it should be provable if there’s evidence. If so, rot in jail as a murderer.

            If he didn’t- he’s not specifically found innocent, he’s just found not guilty… and he should walk.

            For fuck’s sake….

            Internet lawyers are the fucking worst!
