    Not true. Just because the press does not report the outcomes of judicial proceedings does not mean that nothing always comes out of every investigation. Many cases are solved without the people knowing because the press does not report it.

    The low cost FaceBook press does not have the resources to publish the details of judicial proceedings and every arrest.

    One of my eternal questions is why there is so little follow up by the press on resolutions of murder cases. In this case they know who it is and have a photo. For instance the the Printze (sp?) fellow who was beaten to death down by the boulevard. I would like to know the disposition of the four assailants. Anyone know a way to find out?

    And the fact that the poor (and mentally ill) get manipulated by smart prosecution lawyers is even more sad IMO.

    Well you don't want plumbers making laws, now do you? It makes sense that lawyers, who were educated on law, would make the laws. If you had a bunch of people that knew very little about the law in power it would be a complete mess...or each politician would need a team of lawyers advising them, which would lead to even more demand for lawyers. Civil and criminal courts would be even more if a headache to navigate with all the simple, incompetent and shortsighted laws created by uneducated politicians.

    Also, I would bet that lawyers make up the majority of politicians around the world, not just in the US. I find it insane to imply that judges should not be educated in the law or that it is a flaw in the system. Of course they should be lawyers.

    Lot of people are for these extrajudicial killings and allowing the victims to determine guilt until it is them being judged.

    I don't really have a problem with the death penalty on its own, what I have a problem with is innocent people, who have been falsely convicted (which happens far too frequently), being put to death. There isn't anything less "just" IMO.

    Perhaps if all those involved (judge, jury, prosecutors and police officers) in a false convictions that lead to an innocent person being put to death were to face the exact same punishment I would be alright with the death penalty. (I bet that the death penalty would be applied rarely and in cases where there was 100% certainty of the accused guilt.)

    Personal accountability for their actions and decisions is foremost. There is no excuse for choosing to be a criminal. Someone who defies law and order does not deserve our sympathy for these offenders are no longer kids. They should know what they are doing and are to be accountable for their actions.

    Well I suppose that is the problem with letting individuals determine and carrying out their own brand "justice" .

    Drug users are still human. How they got to where they are is just a consequence of their circumstances. If you had the exact same life experiences you would not be any better off.

    Whe
    When I came in country the DAP scandal was in full swing. I noted the riding in tandem murders and scoured the internet for a murder solution rate. I finally found an article that seemed reputable that quoted a 23% murder solution rate. Since than the murder rate went from 9.5% to 11.5%, so the solution rate probably went down. If only 20% of the murders are solved, it's open season I would think.

    It is true. Nothing always comes out of every investigation. Do authorities reach a blank wall every time? Or is there a need for dedicated and driven investigators to pursue each case without stop until we make real arrests of those guilty criminals?

    Something is wrong with the way criminal investigations are conducted in my country.
