    I thought it was obvious I was speaking of the overall general problem, not to this case specifically. So the be clear, in the general sense when a report is made, neither side is particularly trustworthy. It’s a criminal’s word vs the member of a corrupt gang, so it’s hard to know who to believe. So ideally we should have a system with checks to ensure this isn’t even a possibility.

      Where you are fucking up is assuming someone in jail is less trustworthy than the pigs who put them there and watch over them. This is not the case. I’ve been to jail and the prisoners are the most human thing about it. The system and the guards are what is disgusting and it is them who can not be trusted.

        I specifically didn’t say that. On one side we have murderers, rapists, child molesters, liars, and everything else, and on the other we have people convicted for committing murder, rape, child molestation, lying, and everything else. If it’s all one big shit show, why are they put together at all?
