I see the whole area of jurisprudence often wanting.
It's core deals with law, and that law is so often manufactured to establish and maintain power over. Thus it is mostly an adversarial proposition and therefore the main criteria is argument and presented 'evidence'. It is this component, the intent to win, which can subvert or hide the facts. In such cases true JUSTICE does not prevail.
Case in point is the concept that the Criminal Defense actions of Cooley in arguing on behalf of his "drug dealer" when he certainly knew his client did in fact deal in drugs. I am not arguing that the law is correct in the first place, just that the facts got hidden because winning was more important in this system than revealing of fact.
This contributes to a culture manipulated by suppression of the truth and away lacking in truth and integrity.
I find it despicable, that Cooley participated in abetting the anti-justice and in human actions of the CoS and also find his ethics wanting.
What good does it do me to Hate the man, so I take the stance that 'forgive him for he truly knows not what he does' or if he did, then...
I wish that I had been there to help him listen to his heart.
