Alan: Why, in God's name, do authorized representatives of the United States' legal system declare, as a matter of public record, that 93 miles per hour is 75 miles per hour? The bedrock purpose of the courts is to determine -- through presentation of evidence -- what is true. The upshot of systematic falsification is the now-normal ease with which Americans spurn scientific findings, fictionalize any damn thing and believe that one is innocent until proven guilty. In fact, suspects are "presumed innocent until proven guilty." Behind every allegation, "the accused" is, as a matter of fact, guilty because he guilty, or innocent because she is innocent. If valid evidence shows Hairston doing 93 miles per hour, any alteration of that number is a kind of "cultural perjury" that honors "wink, wink, nudge, nudge" more highly than Truth itself.
P.J. Hairston gets reduced charge
Clocked at 93 miles per hour;
pleads down to 75 miles per hour
Clocked at 93 miles per hour;
pleads down to 75 miles per hour
