I`d love to write a very serious piece about "Justice" but I can`t.
Legal fees are outrageous, the Jury members want to go home or back to their lives.(Incidently I have got out of it three times now)
Maybe in medievel days they had it right, a big barrell of boiling water, get the stone out of it and your off.
That of course was a cynical and un-meant barbaric comment, but I have followed the "Salt" case for a while and the media would have been judging the bereaved couple guilty to make a good story.
It`s a shocker, we had media on our doorstep before we were even home,in our traumas, and one other thing most people don`t know our about case, was that I personally found out about the tradedy via a TV report, which was thrust down our throats all day without permission at all.
Trial by Media? Its been here all the time.
Send the jury home, let the ratings decide, or indeed the hot stone and never say Boo! to a goose, someone might get you on something.

And anyone not yet convinced of the sheer malice in a great deal of social prosecution must gasp at this.
