It's not about revenge.
Our motivation to not do things is driven by consequences.
When the balance of power exists so that those who determine consequences for people can do so out of self-interest, they need to be held up to the same standards and face equal consequences themselves.
The prosecutor should have a sentence passed against him to ensure others do not follow suit with "$500 and 500 hours community service, oh and I can still be a legal consultant for a corporation - I can accept that risk for some gain"...
- brazzy 13y agoPeople are really good at ignoring consequences and believing that they won't get caught, or are justified to break the rules. I'd say it's much better to change the system so that it's not in a prosecutor's self interest to convict as many people as possible.
