Just pointing one thing out. That's an easy statement to make until
you are the person wrongly convicted or unjustly sentenced. THEN the
justice system, regardless of how well it has worked in on a case by
case basis, is a piece of crap.

Under our system of justice, innocence or guilt really doesn't matter all
that much, except to the degree that one's life is ruined by the system.
Spending 20 years proving your innocence after a bad conviction isn't
exactly the same as going free.
