In an ideal world yes, I agree with you Honey. And obviously I hate a situation where innocent people are wrongly condemned and, sometimes, convicted. But the legal system is totally broken and discredited. If your ideal Utopia meant innocent people walked free and guilty people got locked up, I'd give three cheers. But I'm far from convinced and I'm not sure locking innocent people up (as at present) and letting guilty people get away with it (as might happen without "noble corruption) would be better than the current appalling climate. |

Well some, many, consider it so; if they are certain someone is guilty and will probably offend again, ruining innocent lives, you can understand they want results by bending or twisting rules and evidence.
It is not for them to be the judge and jury. This is why we have the court system that so many cant wait to get rid of.
Standing against the crooked system and trying to change it would be noble. Going along with it is not. |

There is nothing noble in what they are doing. |

Talking at length to two very senior ex-police chiefs yesterday they said the main problem with policing has become that, though taught never to believe anyone when investigating a possible crime, police are so pressurised (targets, budgets) that they have no time to investigate both sides and just try to confirm guilt without examining the accused's side. Intentions are often noble but the efforts become, by default, corrupt. |
