Actually, that is a pretty good example...
“To many in this country today guilt or innocence is determined by what the alleged perp is.”
Indeed. Al Capone was busted and tried when there was a case and not before. But before they got him on the tax charge they knew damn well he was an evil sob-they simply couldn’t do a damn thing about it. The Constitution prevented it. Not anymore. If the charge is childabuse BURN THE WITCH!!!) nothing else seems to matter, not evidence or proper procedure, NOTHING.
We were all better of in the taking down of Capone, and we were all better off by the respect shown the constitution by the guys going after him.
Well said.
