There are different systems in use today. In many other countries, judges/prosecutors are charged with much more of a "figure out the true facts of what happened; do justice" role than they are in the US system.

- rootusrootus 7y agoIs there evidence to suggest that those systems are more effective at finding the truth, or delivering justice?
- WilliamEdward 7y agoThat is a subjective question. I would argue things like paying for lawyers, paying your court fees even if you win (US system), and bail, cannot be an effective way to achieve true justice because they are all biased towards the rich.
