I'm no Ally McBeal, but there will be cases that aren't just beyond reasonable doubt, but absolutely without question.

But the crime is the same.

I'm no Ally McBeal, but there will be cases that aren't just beyond reasonable doubt, but absolutely without question.

Then you are looking for a total rewrite of the criminal justice system and not just where the death penalty is involved.

I think my big takeaway is how many scared murderers there are on twf

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

A jury decides guilt on a yes or no basis taking reasonable doubt as guidance. You change that and you have to rip it up and start again.

Plus you would return to the original Victorian problem that you would get a huge increase in mistrials and non-verdicts as it only takes one anti-death penalty juror to refuse to convict and you have at best a majority verdict.

Jury trials are a load of nonsense anyway if that documentary where they put two unknowingly groups side by side in the same court room is anything to go by, as they got different Verdicts.

Bit like brexit, giving people power to make a decision they aren’t really qualified to make is a bit stupid. What’s the answer, don’t know. Just let the judge decide or a panel of judges

Awful company but very good software, if you go to competitive tender then they often win fairly (and very annoyingly)

Starmer should resign.

Starmer should resign.

Yeah I mean all this shit about not knowing what he was really like is utter bollocks. I knew what he was like after spending 5 minutes dicking about on my phone whilst watching repeats of Peep Show. It's about the 5th time his political career has 'ended'.
