Imagine the Prosecutor's Office programming those robots.
Imagine a state where during trial the jury only decides the facts and the judge gets to decide the law.
Imagine a law that is easy for everyone to violate, like one that forbids disposing of a compact florescent in the household trash but instead requires you to drive 30 miles to an approved disposal facility.
Imagine at trial the jury only being allowed to decide if in fact you either threw the CFL in the trash or not.
Imagine being sent to prison on the felony of improper disposal of a hazardous substance.
Was all that unimaginable? How ‘bout this— imagine being sent to federal prison for importing lobsters in a plastic container rather than a cardboard one.
