We've reached a point where people who are supposed to dispense justice have a serious lack of ethics. It can ruin innocent lives, and the people who do it generally have no oversight. Our system is going to have to change at some point. For one thing, the concepts of judicial and prosecutorial immunity need to be re-examined.legalschnauzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09619089628125964154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3669412675139526125.post-27359180947603459052011-01-28T11:48:41.729-06:002011-01-28T11:48:41.729-06:00Its to my understanding that this indictment could...Its to my understanding that this indictment couldn't have come at a worse time for Hal. Greenlee recused himself from the prosecution and some other lawyers from Lousianna took the case. <br /><br />Of course, everyone fled like a diseased herd after the Scruggs conviction to write their book about Scruggs. The story reached it climax around the same time the attorney firings were happening. Maybe coincidental maybe not.<br /><br /><br />Anyways Hal(former marine) was indicted before his retirement and would disqualify him from his pension. Kind of harsh don't you think. Imagine the other cases that went before the northern district that could be similar to this.<br /><br />You see, they insist you take the plea regardless of criminal intent, because a jury assumes that the govt doesn't indict someone who is guilty.<br /><br />Corruption has run rampent in the DOJ. It sickens me to see what they've been aloud to get away with.<br /><br />We all make mistakes that results in insurmountable lawyer fees, health problems, addictions, jail times, and whatever else. <br /><br />I hope for transparency. It's almost like a gang of frat boys that call the shots and ruin peoples lives and familys etc. This is not the America which I was brain washed in school. No wonder home schooling is becoming more attractive. I'll end on that note.<br /><br />Hal is a hero to alot of people in Ms. He could of taken the plea, been found guilty. He alleged selective prosecution but the motion was denied of course. <br /><br />The story goes on.choggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10626362713385459691noreply@blogger.com
