I’m not particularly worried about going to prison for a DUI. Nor am I worried they’re gonna kill me. If there are public articles about how evidence was planted, even the shittiest lawyer on earth would have a field day with that case.
I am white but not very wealthy. But in this case that doesn’t make much of a difference. If its so obvious they planted evidence that the entire world already knows about it, you will come out on top regardless of race.
I definitely don’t envy your unfounded cynisism. The justice system is biased against black people, but when the planting of evidence is already proven to that extent, there isn’t anything they can do.
Its not like you just automatically go to prison if you’re black. You still get a trial, and if you have a case that good you’ll be fine.
You willing to wait 3 years in jail for that? If you survive?
You know what, this conversation isn’t worth it. Next you’ll go, “ah but you have a right to a speedy trial” and I’ll tell you the real world examples of that not happening and you’ll keep saying “they’re not allowed to do that” and I’ll keep saying “they do it anyway, and get away with it” ad infinium, for every level. You’re just fucking naive and privileged. You’ve clearly never seen someone get railroaded by the system and that fucking sucks, because the logical conclusion of your line of thought is “since it’s so magically easy to not have the cops railroad you, it must not be happening” which leads to “therefore everyone fucked over by cops must have deserved it”.
It’s frustrating. You refuse to see the way the world works and it makes you a worse person.
“since it’s so magically easy to not have the cops railroad you, it must not be happening”
It is happening, it just isn’t going to happen any more in this case. Notice every time I said this person would be fine I said "in this situation. There is a reason for that. Also note when I literally said the justice system is biased against black people.
“therefore everyone fucked over by cops must have deserved it”.
Well I don’t believe that, never said I did, and I never will believe it. That’s obviously completely untrue, so I don’t know why you’re saying this.
You willing to wait 3 years in jail for that? If you survive?
Have you ever heard of bail? Not a perfect solution to that problem, but its disingenuous to say you are definitely going to have to wait in jail for 3 entire years to get to your trial.
You know what, this conversation isn’t worth it.
Ah, the classic “I don’t have to come up with an argument because you aren’t worth my time.” You don’t have to be correct if you can just call me naive.
Yeah you’re gonna go to prison. Or maybe have a “heart attack” on the ride to jail.
You have any idea how often cops get away with this stuff?
Almost always. Even with video evidence against them.

You must be very white and wealthy.
