Reply To: Justice in Balto.?

akuperma -“3. The kid who was convicted doesn’t seem all that innocent. He was seriously violating Shomrim’s policies. Note that when the Shomrim arrived, they appear to beieve the “victim” had been wrongfully attacked.”

You know good & well Shomrim’s policies have nothing to do with the Law. Their opinion is Not worth didley squat. They weren’t there during the incident anymore than me or you.

Now let’s see – on one side there is testimony saying self-defense – on the other side there is mumbling & asking for the case to be dropped.

Seems to any non-prejudiced observer that the Judgment would have to be Non-Guilty due to self-defense. Any other Judgment would not be based on any rules of law. This would be called a miscarriage of justice!
