Im going to hijack this thread since I dont kow how to start a new one. Sorry.
In another, now closed thread, someone wrote:
“What Dan lkaf zchus is there to a prosecutor? That he wasn’t intenyltionally malicious, perhaps.”
Actually, yes.
“Doesn’t mean you have to believe that the allegations against the defendant is true.”
Correct.
Which is why I wrote that the best thing to do in simply say nothing. If one of the sides asks you for your help, thats another story altogether. Consult your Rav for the halachic ramifications and a lawyer for the legal ones.
OK. Back to talking plea bargaining.
