...We may proclaim that all are innocent until proven guilty, but we, through our mob mentality, tilt the state towards deciding the guilt, long before trial.
Whereas, the proper basis for determining innocence or guilt includes ensuring the accused’s attendance in court, protecting the judicial process from outside interference, weighing evidence on the basis of facts and law, and finally by protecting the sanctity of an investigation.
When nations transition from oppressive and lawless regimes to democratic ones, they face innumerable challenges. If the values of a democratic government are to take root, the state must transform the culture in which it operates.
The most important opportunity for promoting the transformation of the culture towards due process of law is in the state’s response to the public’s quest for mob justice -
Our judicial system is already slow, people want to slow it down further. Justice delayed is justice denied, and I don't agree with people riding on flying pigs of morality, For me the rapists and murder lose the right to be treated as human once they commit the crime, they must be burned alive in public and their ashes must be thrown in garbage dumps.
