| The relationship of the government and the governed is one of good faith. We trust our legal system to do all it can to bring out the facts and adjudicate them properly.
If no breach of that good faith is sighted, no remuneration should be given.
The idea being that if justice is blind, it can't help but make mistakes, in both directions. Some may be falsely imprisoned, and other will be released despite their guilt.
Such payments are a fools errand. |
