Wealthy white guy "finds" his wife dead and does what any loving husband does, he dismembers her then dumps her remains in garbage dumpsters. Who tf out there believes this fuckin' guy? Had he been black this wouldn't even go to trial he would have just been iced in his living room by some death squad thumb head trooper.

Just one of the many cool things about having a justice system that provides different levels of service depending on how wealthy the defendant is. Like if you've got the money (or monied interests) to fight a case it doesn't matter how patently absurd your position is, by god, you will have a right to a fair trial and the judicial process will entertain your lawyer's absurd arguments. So once in a while hellworld gives us a sickening glimpse or deep dive into some deeply fucked up shit while "justice" performs its ritualistic performance.

None of this would be "cool" if humans weren't mostly sicko-pog - I wonder if we'd flip the system sooner if we weren't so entertained / outrage-engaged by it all.
