"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Thousands of People in Only One State have Been in Jail for Over a YEAR and Never Proven Guilty
Submitted by Melinda L. Secor on Mon, 2018-04-23 01:00
"Nearly half a million Americans are currently being held in jail while they are denied their constitutional right to a speedy trial. The problem has become so pervasive that many critics of the American judicial system are up in arms over the phenomenon. In Louisiana alone, there are over 2,000 people who have been languishing in jail for more than a year, all waiting for the chance to prove their innocence."
