Even if somebody is convicted, endless appeals each lasting years ensure that nobody is ever punished. It is people like this author, who have over time, destroyed the legal system. The system we have today is a grotesque representation of a justice system where criminals are never punished, where the police have been handcuffed, justice is never delivered, and lawyers congratulate themselves for having created it.
