OJ's bloody glove is probably the most famous example.
Bill Cosby's case was also very famous, and recent. Only one victim was allowed to testify - inexplicable.
The very recent Donziger case was pretty shocking; some major evidence was ignored there, along with established procedures.
Then you have things going on at even higher levels, like the Supreme Court deciding not to investigate itself, or the CFR blocking witnesses that would have said the WMD story was baloney.
Those were cases where the entire world was watching. Imagine what goes on where it's only a million or two at stake.
- sidewndr46 3y agoI can't see the Donziger case as anything other than a guy getting railroaded.
- mandmandam 3y agoHe certainly was railroaded. He had plenty of ironclad evidence and precedent on his side, and even a little media attention. It didn't matter. There wasn't even a hint of repercussions (not even mild official rebuke) for the people that stitched Donziger up via the Justice system (Kaplan, Preska, Chevron, etc).
