49. "Yeah, they'll get a trial"

Mon Jan 11, 2016, 09:26 AM

Jan 2016

Hope it doesn't delay the hanging.

We have due process in this country for a reason. Maybe the parents turned them in because warrants were executed. And wanted to protect these children from cops breaking down their doors and dragging them out. We all know how THAT might have gone. Just because a warrant has been executed doesn't make someone guilty.

And does the surveillance camera show the actual crime? Or just them hanging around the general area? You believe what the police say without actually seeing it for yourself ? Hahahaha. Funny.

Remember the so called Central Park wilding case many years ago? Exact same sentiment as I'm reading on this board, yet those young men turned out to be not guilty. So lay down your pitchfork for a bit.
