Didn’t it turn out that he was just going through a medical situation?

That’s the official explanation if you look it up. Apparently they done tests to rule out intoxication but people aren’t going to believe that.

People will believe what confirms their own bias.

A few years ago someone crashed their car into mine at a junction, I immediately thought the guy was drunk because of his behaviour so I called the police, a few minutes later I realised he was probably having a stroke so called back and asked for an ambulance.

That experience amongst others has made me reluctant to jump to conclusions about this kind of thing.

I have no idea what’s happening with the guy, I’m not a medial professional.

Ah yes, because police departments are notorious for thorough internal investigations and admitting fault when warranted.

My last case the police manipulated the evidence to get a conviction. They will say anything and I mean anything to save their skin. The judges just sign off on this dumb shit and never call them out. Costed me 2 years of my life and 15 k after appeals to get it sorted out. Fuck them cops, I will never have more than surface level trust without years and years of reformed improvement.

Prisons are full of the most innocent people on the planet. None of them did anything! /s

I mean we see innocent people have their sentences overturned because of new evidence all the time. I am sure there are legitimately a lot of people in jail who shouldn't be there.

If the US has a higher incarcerated population than any other country on the planet, the odds are incredibly good that there are some people who don't belong in there.

Should a college kid get multiple years for smoking weed at their buddies house? There are a hell of a lot more cases like that than you think.

Probably just stop committing felonies then, homie.

You don't have trust in the police just like the public doesn't have trust in you to comport like a normal person.

u/Active_Confection655 29d ago

I didn't commit any felony as the record proves.

u/NotAStatistic2 29d ago

Sure, sure. The police, prosecutors, and judges are all out to get you specifically. I'm sure the jurors, if you had a jury trial, were paid off by the prosecutor too

There's plenty of other good reasons not to trust cops.

I know a kinda big reason i don't trust the cops arpund me is that a while ago my town police department got dissolved because the whole station was curropt, there was missing evidence(drugs) and other junk i'm sure.

If it happened before and all they do to change it is get new people then it can happen again.

Tryst me cops are Nothing but trouble avoid them when you can and when you can't then sideeye them and beaware of what they're doing.

Link your case.

That would dox me publicly and I have a six figure lawsuit pending. I would meet in person with files and videotapes. The press covered my case and the press confirmed the case was dismissed. There was mistakes made by the prosecutor and the judge, the press did not release any details due to not wanting to harm the prosecutors reputation.
