They did it, they found her guilty on all four charges.
I never did like the US justice system with all it's overlaping charges. She was found guilty of making false statements, obstruction of justice, and perjury, all basicaly the same damn thing.
And, it is wrong for prosecutors to combine crimes, and trial people again and again on one act, therefore multiplying a punishment.
But is it wrong of me to derive joy from the fact that she got nailed?
I tell myself that she got what she deserved, but should I smile when I say it? I know it's shamefull to be happy about something like this, but I can't help it but feel good, and feel guilty about feeling good. |
