it's always been that way Zorax. It's a very tedious process, especially if you have a bunch of money.
We still have to give every defendant their due process. You would want that for yourself if you thought you were unjustly tried for a crime you did not commit.
LOL I went 18 months for a DUI charge back in 2000. They had nothing on me and I eventually walked. My life got fucked up in between because the cops had the charge against me but I'm a good boy now.
