Ethics and legal experts warn that the Supreme Court has struck a serious blow to prosecutors’ ability to crack down on the abuse of power and public corruption.
And that’s ringing alarm bells when Donald Trump, who was convicted in May by a Manhattan jury on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records and who was hit with a $355 million penalty in a civil fraud trial in February, is leading in the presidential race.
The 34 counts is a great example of how corrupt the prosecution system already is.
ReplyDeleteTrump committed one sin and got hit with 34 charges so it would look like he was a serial criminal.
It's like me eating 1 pizza and you accusing me of eating 12 unhealthy meals. No I ate one in 12 parts but it was one.
And this is standard in prosecutions in the US. You commit 1 crime, get charge with 12 different things and the assumption is that you'll see the list and think "Dang, I better do a plea bargain or I'm in big trouble." It's intimidation.
You start saying the system is against Trump then you say this is a standard prosecution. If it is standard it can't be biased! Why not just say you don't like any system which holds Trump accountable for his many crimes
DeleteThe system is biased against the defendants because it gives the prosecutors too much power. That the biased system was used against Trump is further bias.
