I agree with you from the perspective of one transgression not being a reason to ruin a life but unfortunately, that's the system under which we live even if you are innocent.
Accused of something? The arrest and pending charges show up in all background checks until the charges are dropped or you are acquitted and even then the police have the discretion to decide whether or not to remove them from your record. If you are a professional, this is a death sentence to your career that needs to be handled with incredible care.
TL;DR there is no support for the innocent in the justice system either.
- winter_blue 14y agoThat's really disappointing. I think there needs to be more mercy for criminals. And the situation you described for the innocent is quite appalling. Can this be fixed?
- cheez 14y agoNo it can't. Who is going to fight for the guilty if you can't even find enough people to fight for the innocent?
