"You sir have presented a false choice….and again, an irrelevancy. The DA has one job, to prosecute cases he can win. Period. Yep, that’s his ONLY job. He said it time and time again during this affair…..prosecute only cases he can win. That may mean innocence, or it may mean a lack of evidence, or it may mean a weak witness."

Which merely reinforces my original post on this thread stating that Winston is a worthy heir to the legacy of OJ Simpson. The system in both cases exonerated both men of the accusations brought against them (albeit at different stages of the legal process). In one case the DA stated he didn't have adequate evidence to bring a prosecution and in the other, the jury opined that the evidence was insufficient to convict. Since both walked free, they are equal in the eyes of the law...just like the rest of us who aren't serving time or pending any charges, with the exception that they both have Heisman trophies, awarded at least in part, for their "integrity."

The OJ Simpson analogy is a very poor one….given that there was indeed a winnable case there that was blown by an ignorant jury. No such situation is even close here….and oh by the way….NO ONE DIED HERE. LET ME REPEAT. NO ONE DIED HERE.

ONCE AGAIN, NO ONE DIED HERE. The OJ analogy is just absurd frankly. And no, they aren’t even totally equal in the eyes of the law either. And one thing that you still cannot figure out a way to contemplate is the fact that Winston may only be guilty of being picked up by a girl.

Is this really the second coming of OJ? Really? Preposterous.
