      I gotta say it.

      Ok Boomer.

      Society has failed everyone. It’s just that most people don’t see it.

        I’m sorry but yeah your situation sucks if it’s true, but I don’t know really what you expect the court to do if there are multiple witnesses saying this happened.

          Prove it. Can’t prove what didn’t happen? Apparently we now gotta indefinitely jail someone until they give up. /s

            I’m not saying indefinitely jail them, but that’s a serious accusation, and if there are witnesses then I can see why a jury would be convinced. Of course it’s ridiculous you didn’t get a speedy trial, but I think it’s pretty fair to jail someone over that accusation.

              A jury wasn’t convinced. They wouldn’t let me have a jury. They wouldn’t let me in the court room until I agreed to their bullshit.
