Re:What happens after a defendant is found not guilty by rea... by kelnos on Wednesday September 27, 2017 @06:03PM (#15352748)
I think that's a good point. We shouldn't judge a process based on the rare, outlying cases. We can't expect all of law to be perfect and do the right thing every time. Certainly there are levels of incorrectness that we don't want to live with, but we should expect that sometimes a guilty person will go free. And personally I would much rather a guilty person go free than an innocent person be imprisoned or executed.
