[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 2752861, member: 13624"] It's not just bad guys getting set free. As between acquitting the guilty and convicting the innocent, convicting the innocent is [I]always[/I] the greater crime. Why? Because when we acquit the guilty, the bad guy goes free; when we convict the innocent, the good guy goes to jail [I]and[/I] the bad guy goes free (because after there's a conviction, we stop looking for the bad guy). Convicting the innocent is an injustice [I]compounded atop[/I] letting the guilty free, not a substitute replacing it. [/QUOTE]
