Why is Ortiz "obviously disgusting"?

• danenania 14y ago
  Because she abused her official capacity to hound a much more honorable and talented person than herself to the point of suicide? Honestly, for all the jaded and cynical people trying to play 'the adult' by defending the corrupt and immoral actions of the justice system and its officials based on legal technicalities--you don't come across as knowledgeable or reasonable, just spineless and enabling. Hiding behind rules and technicalities to commit evil is the oldest and most cowardly trick in the book.

    Have you read Orrin Kerr's two posts? They're long, but absolutely worth reading. It is by no means clear that Ortiz is some kind of demon.

      Kerr's posts make the case that her actions were legal and conventional, not moral. I'm not claiming she's a demon. It is very common for otherwise decent people to do evil in their institutional roles. But history shows that it's very very dangerous to permit this as an excuse.
