  1. A quotation from John Adams

       We are to look upon it as more beneficial, that many guilty persons should escape unpunished, than one innocent person should suffer. The reason is, because it’s of more importance to community, that innocence should be protected, than it is, that guilt should be punished; for guilt and crimes are so frequent in the world, that all of them cannot be punished; and many times they happen in such a manner, that it is not of much consequence to the public, whether they are punished or not.
       But when innocence itself, is brought to the bar and condemned, especially to die, the subject will exclaim, it is immaterial to me, whether I behave well or ill; for virtue itself, is no security. And if such a sentiment as this, should take place in the mind of the subject, there would be an end to all security what so ever.

    John Adams (1735–1826) American lawyer, Founding Father, statesman, US President (1797–1801)
    Speech (1770-12-03/04), Argument for the Defense, Boston Massacre Trial

    La peur crée le déséquilibre.

    La fascination pousse au ré-équilibre.

    Mais bon sang qu'est-ce que ma fascination a à me dire ?

  3. :vz206: Unschuldig verurteilt- was tun?Das Innocence Project hilft! :vz267:

    Nur selten wird in der Öffentlichkeit über Fehlurteile in Strafsachen gesprochen. Menschen die oft für lange Zeit in Haft geschickt werden, aber in Wirklichkeit unschuldig sind.

    Für @RDL sprach ich heute im Morgenradio mit Rechtsanwältin Laura Farina Diederich. Sie ist Mitbegründerin und Vorstandsmitglied des Innocence Project Deutschland, einer Initiative, die Menschen unterstützt, die zu Unrecht verurteilt wurden – und die sich dafür einsetzt, dass solche Fehler erkannt und korrigiert werden können.
