So Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold aren’t       historically guilty of killing fellow students at Columbine High School,       because they committed suicide after they shot up the school, and were never       tried.        > > > >        > > > > And Charles Whitman isn’t historically guilty of being the Texas       Tower shooter, because he too committed suicide after shooting people from the       Texas Tower?        > > > Actually, he was killed by the cops.

A LEGAL PRESUMPTION! Indeed it has       *nothing* do with the actual facts of guilt or innocence. In fact even if       someone if *found* innocent, they can later be charged and found guilty an be       punished for committing        perjury if later unassailable evidence of guilt comes out even though the       person cannot actually be retried for guilt or innocence in. See the Mel       Ignatow case:        > >        > > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mel_Ignatow       > Then we have the case of OJ. He was found not guilty by the jury.

That jury decided by the preponderance of evidence that it       was more likely than not that he had caused the        > deaths of those same two people. So what should we conclude from those two       verdicts?              Well I personally conclude the first jury was determined to let him off,       pretty much no matter what!              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
