Reminds me of a similar story out of the UK where the postal service IT systems were supposedly losing accounting info and getting contractors into legal trouble: https://www.cbronline.com/news/horizon-it-system-errors-sent-people-to-prison-now-the-post-office-is-paying-out https://www.cbronline.com/news/horizon-it-system-errors-sent...
- cameronh90 7y agoThis is an enormous scandal and, in my opinion, calls into question the nature of the legal system itself. The law is clearly biased towards assuming the establishment is being truthful and accurate, and trying to prove otherwise is an uphill battle.
