    I thought we had “innocent until proven guilty”. But instead we have a convicted felon for president who’s a pedophile friend, and a guy named Luigi Mangione in jail while we don’t even know who really did it.

      When asked if people would rather have some innocent people get jailed, or some guilty people set free (in court).

      The majority said they’d rather have some innocent people get jailed. Which to me seems like the worst of both worlds. An innocent person behind bars. And the real criminal is free.

      I don’t have a source. Something I remember seeing maybe 10 years ago but it stuck with me. Feel free to ask those you know the question, see what they answer.
