    OJ got off. Juries do not matter. Racial prejudice, bias for more attractive defendants, etc. Justice system can never be perfect. Unless you're watching the Minority Report.

    I remember 12 angry men. One fellow turned all the people around. He should have been a lawyer.

    It's a really sad statement that this is true. Makes you wonder how many people throughout the years have got away from a crime they committed.

    An obvious flaw in the American legal system. We have no such errors like that over here in Pakistan.

    eh, not a big fan cynical quotes like this, as true as it may be, it's just sort of depressing.

    Very true that, in a court it's all about persuasion rather than the truth.

    "How much justice can you afford?" That has always pissed me off. The rich routinely get away with "murder" be it actual homicide or bilking unsuspecting grandmothers.
