beyond a reasonable doubt is still supposed to be the threshold.

The operative words here are supposed to be. John al-Murthawi changed all that, IMO.

You’re absolutely right, Justa. Fat Jack al-Murthawi has a strange interpretation of “presumption of innocence” and “beyond a reasonable” doubt. It’s beyond sad that a sitting US Congressman would ignore our Constitution in such a manner.

I don't think he deserves that much credit. IMO, the problem is systemic. Murthawi is a manifestation. Kind of like a big boil in an outbreak of boils. But if anyone deserved to have a hot needle shoved in them...
