We know where your sympathies lie with respect to the present case but you don't have a grasp on what is necessary to throw out a voluntary manslaughter charge. In the Taylor case, officers listened to a privileged conversation intentionally, yet the Indiana Appellate Court ruled that the officers could still testify to untainted information. And you think that, even though there are still a number of disputed facts that as yet have not been determined, John's all-important civil rights merit a dismissal? No, the normal practice is for the judge to exclude inadmissible evidence at trial but allow a jury to determine whether a crime has been committed, not just hand out a get-out-of-jail-free card. And the judge really had to resort to some twisted logic on the speedy trial issue. As the defense is introducing new delays on a weekly basis, it somehow falls on the prosecutors and judge? The bottom line is that the "civil rights" you mention benefit the wealthy quite a bit more than they do the poor, don't they? With all due respect, you have no grasp where my "sympathies" lie if you feel that way. My "sympathies" lie with people who kill others going on trial. Because of all of the delays and motion that came out of the stupid act of violating Larkin's civil rights (again, and Brian Taylor's) this door got opened to Larkin (and Taylor). Larkin has a legal right to get the items heard, and it isn't his fault they happened. If the authorities don't open this door, Larkin isn't able to use it. And if you want to make this a rich thing, please explain to me how poor and black Brian Taylor ended up back on the street in a similar situation? In fact, poor and black Brian Taylor saw the authorities essentially drop the case until they can find other outside and non-compromised evidence. Rich and white Larkin saw much more of a courtroom than Taylor did. I know your point of view is compromised by your close position to this case. But realistically, this case has long since been to trial if the violation of civil rights didn't happen. Even if it didn't give the direct reason for the dismissal, that violation was the direct cause of the dismissal. Literally it all traces back to that. |
