Re: How did it slip by?... easy... Yeah, but chances are they'll have a impartial judge the second time... one who would rule them not guilty. |

The current judge ruled the right decision. no one questioned it until the news was released that he wasn't impartial.
I personally think they'll still be found guilty. Because they are. |

If you really believe that no one questioned it you must not be paying much attention.
I also think that guilt or innocence will not enter into the equation. It is purely a matter of who the politicians will give in to. The **aa applying pressure or the changing political situation in their own country. Having the fourth largest party in the country grow by 15% in less than one day is not a laughing matter. |

Or perhaps I just have a different opinion than the frothing at the mouth thieves who feel they are entitled to everything for free? I actually read several law professors and students of the law who all predicted a guilty verdict, well before any of this mess about the corrupt judge came out. I like to research a subject before forming my opinion on the matter and in this case, I read a lot from both sides. They are breaking the law, pure and simple.
Just Google a bit and you'll find all the information you need. Of course, if you limit yourself to pro-thievery sites, it will seem like everyone believes they are innocent and that the ruling was wrong. |

There is a HUGE difference between what you just said in this last post and saying that NO ONE questioned the verdict. |

Only if you think in terms of everything being black and white. Most people can infer meaning. I can't possible account for how everyone will read what I type. |

How can this be viewed as anything but a black and white statement? Take at look around the net at posts from the date that the PB verdict was released, there were tons of people questioning what was with the judge. This was well before the judge's association with **aa was news. |

said by Matt:Impartiality has nothing to do with whether they are guilty or not. You're right. They aren't guilty.The current judge ruled the right decision. No, it wasn't "right", it was the "correct" verdict his handlers expected... no one questioned it until the news was released that he wasn't impartial. Uh, beg pardon? A lot of people were seriously questioning that ruling right from the second it was announced.
I personally think they'll still be found guilty. Because they are. Nope, they aren't. Of course if they may try and get a ruling of guilty under the new crimes of "aiding", on the grounds that their tracker was useful in "aiding" someone to commit copyright infringement, but it's a weak argument with lots of legal problems, because such a legal standard would make everything liable for "aiding" someone who breaks a law or rule. Example: A gun manufacturer isn't a criminal, but by making firearms, they "aided" a bank robbery, etc etc

Impartiality has EVERYTHING to do with the validity of any ruling. |
