Standard procedure is exactly why so many innocents are in prison and so many guilty are never punished

South Side man suing city over his 2012 robbery arrest

How many times does the folly of standard police procedure have to be demonstrated before people understand that cannot be a defense of official incompetence and irresponsibility?

A man actually spent nearly a year in jail because of this - hats off to your right to a speedy trial, by the way - before the inanity of the witness identification was exposed.

The prisons are full of people convicted by juries satisfied with horseshit.
