> the unlawful imprisonment of Lula

Are you joking?

Of course not, but I think you know that.

How is it unlawful to arrest a criminal with multiple convictions of corruption, bribery and money laundering?

> He was unlawfully investigated and judged by Sérgio Moro

The jurisdiction issue? A minor technicality that got him off the hook. He was supposed to undergo a new trial but I guess that's never gonna happen now.

We all saw the evidence. For years we watched news about this. Other politicians ratted him out. It's like every few months they'd discover a new thing this guy stole. I remember watching such a news report less than a year ago.

Are you seriously claiming he's not a criminal in spite of everything he's done because they let him go free on a technicality? I just don't know what to say anymore. I'm done. There's no point, he won.

Are you really summarising all of that post as "The jurisdiction issue? A minor technicality that got him off the hook."?

He had his basic human right to a fair trial robbed of him.

If you think that's "a minor technicality", then we really have no common ground to argue on.

Correct, a minor technicality. His crimes didn't happen wherever it is that they tried him. A minor jurisdiction issue. Just move to the proper court or something.

> we really have no common ground to argue on

Probably not. There's no point anyway. Probably best to move on from this insanity.
