Hello Wayne - 

RJT>> The only problem I have with it is how often "the state"
RJT>> is mistaken... 

RJT>> That's why several states now seem to have a moratorium
RJT>> on it. Now if you're talking about a situation where they
RJT>> admit guilt, or something similar, I have absolutely no
RJT>> objection to it. 

MM>> For reasons yet unknown to me, there have recently been
MM>> cases uncovered during DNA testing where even "admitted
MM>> guilty" persons have later been proven innocent. 

MM>> This gives me cause to wonder about the entire system... 

WC> The police have suspects under duress and stress when
WC> questioning them while dangling the carrot of relief should
WC> they confess. Most innocent people are not prepared for
WC> harsh and threatening treatment so in order to get that
WC> treatment to stop they give in. Witness the Central Park
WC> N.Y. "wilding" rape - assault where several kids went to
WC> prison. The real rapist has now years later confessed _and_
WC> his DNA matches. 

The other factors would be not being able to 'make bail' and
facing years in jails far less equipped for long term
habitation than prisons are and the expense of 'mounting a
defense'. The offer of a 'deal' from the prosecutor's office
and the whole thing ends plus you get to live in a building
designed for long term incarceration might tempt those not
accustom to luxury accomodations to begin with? After six
months in jail you have no job, no place to live, possibly no
car, and probably no friends. Nothing much left to 'go home' to? 

WC> Not to fear however as when we all have chips implanted
WC> locatable by satellite the "Department of Information
WC> Awareness" will clear this all up because the government is
WC> too moral and ethical to abuse such information. 

You're kidding but it wouldn't surprise me at all if Bush
announced a plan to do that very thing tomorrow.
