And this goes to show that if you want a fair trial in any country (even relatively evolved western countries), you need to be rich enough to have a decent legal team. When you read some of the cases from the innocence project, the incompetence is mind boggling. And don't get me started on countries like Japan with 99.7% conviction rate and antiquated laws regarding police arrest. I think that until you have a significant sum of money that can be used to pay for a legal defense team, you are at risk of prison even if you're innocent (of course in most cases the risk is negligible but if you're part of a minority it might not be)...
