Sorry; you are confusing "justice" with "legal process". What she says is "justice"; how it is arrived at, level of proof, etc. in Saudi Arabia, et. al. is something else again.
It certainly is not "justice" to let beyond-a-doubt multiple murderers & worse sit on "Death Row" for 20 years (often longer than their victem lived in toto) losing appeal after appeal, only to be stayed yet again, less than 12 hours before Justice can finally be carried out.

Can't argue with you on this point. Of course, I live in Virginia, and at least at this time, we are moving the scum pretty quickly through the process, sending them on to the ultimate justice.
