    The last sentence changes this whole topic. If they find evidence that proves innocence, they won't reveal it. It's not about protecting the guilty, it's about stopping false imprisonment.

      "The state" exists to enforce the law. Only a corrupt state disregaurds the law. The problem is that incarceration has been nothing more than human traffiking for the entire history of our country. There are a hundred ways prisoners earn money that goes into the pockets of special interests while the cost to fund the system is on tax payer dollars.

      ​@@microcolonelThe police are not searching or interviewing in this case. They're actually doing whats legal save for not turning over exonerating evidence. This man is making a more blanket claim implying that having an informant is somehow wrong or unjust. Just like he said you're getting inside information. He also points out getting information or evidence that they didn't have previously. So even when he knows his client is guilty his issue seems to be you found out my client di guilty and so it kills my win loss ratio.

    I know a guy that was convicted of rape based partly on a jailhouse snitch's false testimony.
    The snitch was on his 4th felony conviction , but was let off if he testified against the accused. He was told what to say by the prosecutor.
    This all came out in court 10 years later.
    The guy was totally framed and spent almost 10 years in jail.

      If you had, let’s say, 100,000 examples of ALL the testimony from some informants ….does that mean you have 100,000 admissions of guilt?
      Or is there a chance you would have quite a few that gathered evidence that helped the defense?
      If you aren’t a narcissist- even you could recognize - it would be a mix of information that supports the prosecution and the defense right?
      But when it’s ONLY information that helps one side that makes it to court….that means shady shit is going on. Obviously.
      The prosecution is required to bring forward any testimony or evidence that helps the defendant. Kinda one of the big deals of our justice system. Just zero accountability in holding people to that standard.

      The reasonable expectation of privacy is that that's an overheard conversation between you and your lawyer or private conversation.
