Man sentenced to probation for sexually assaulting 2 year old

[psijac]

I think its another good example of what happens when you've got a prison system that's already "full".. Had to keep the really bad ones.

What is worst than a person than a person who molest a 2 year old. Our judicial system as a whole is flaud. Nowadays a criminal has more rights than a law abiding person

A person who is ready and willing to convict a person without proof beyond a reasonable doubt.

In this case, that proof was lacking, incomplete, flawed, unavailable. If it were otherwise, the prosecutors would have been more than ready to put on the evidence and obtain a conviction.

Among the other factors heretofore unmentioned, is the lamentable practice of overcharging, where prosecutors charge the most serious offenses they can imagine knowing that, in hopes that, when plea bargaining time comes, the pressure upon the defendant will be maximized. It happens, especially in Federal Court where offenses tend to be more, ahhhh, esoteric.

You cannot be absolutely certain about the guilt of another until all the facts are in.

Suppose, someone decided to hurt you by lying about your being a child molester.

What could be more devastating than that?

Just the accusation is dreadfully damning.

Never mind, guilt or innocence.

I don't recall the decade precisely, but I think sometime in the 80's a group of folks working in a child care center were accused of being child molesters.

Turned out they were innocent based on some bogus idea about repressed memories.

So, don't be too quick to assume guilt.

McMartin pre-school. Commiefornia. For months and months the authorities and their media mouthpieces made it sound like it was impossible for the accused to be innocent of what they were charged with. A modern witch-hunt.

He might be thinking about the case of Dale Akiki in San Diego. You can google it. A movie was made about this, although I have no idea if it is reflective of what actually happened as movies rarely are.

I will say this, though. The reputation of Child protective services took a real beating for their participation in this case, as well as psychology. This seems to have been a witch hunt in every sense of the word. We should hope and pray that nobody from so-called "child protective services" ever knocks on your door, or that of your kids and grandkids.
