Re:30-Year Sentence for Transporting Zines Is a Five-Alarm F... by ndsipa_pomu on Tuesday June 30, 2026 @03:32AM (#48729596)
My point is that there has to be evidence to link the "meeting up for coffee" and the commission of a crime. If a group of people meet for coffee and then later one of them commits a crime, it's not necessarily a conspiracy to commit that crime unless there's evidence (e.g. recorded conversation or witnesses) that the crime was being discussed and planned whilst having a coffee.

Simply appending the phrase "with the intention to commit a violent crime" should not be allowed without evidence of that intention.
