ReverseFaller 2,484 February 23, 2014 Share February 23, 2014 So he's going to jail for 10 days for making an innocent man suffer 25 years in prison? Well, I suppose that's better than him getting off free. 1 Credit for the signature goes to Kyoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frith is Magick 1,471 February 23, 2014 Share February 23, 2014 I hate to be the one to say it, but as a prosecutor, it was Anderson's job to put Morton behind bars. Each side had a stance to defend, and sought evidence to support that stance. If Anderson knowingly hid evidence for personal reasons, that is an issue, however by presenting evidence against Morton, he was fulfilling his obligations at the time. It is sad that an innocent man had to spend that much time behind bars, but at the same time, Anderson was doing his best at the time to keep society safe from a person who he thought was a violent murderer. 2 Keep flyin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Blackstone: "It is better that ten guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer." If ten guilty people escape rather than an innocent would suffer, wouldn't that just mean 10 more innocents will suffer, knowing each would die from each of the guilty's hands? Or am I taking this too literally? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
