System Shouldn T News Today

Protests in the summer of 2020 although a guilty verdict and accountability has been had, justice has not been served. a well functioning justice system shouldnt ensure someone is held accountable for another persons unlawful death. no verdict can change the fact there was an empty seat at the thanksgiving table this week. im joined by k.c hoffler. chair of the rainbow/push coalition. thank you for being with us. i wanted to start with what we heard now. the case has been called by many people a...

Prosecution. you would still have a mob ten times the strength that it is now if there was no cooperation. that is not to say, though, that thoughtful people in the justice system shouldnt be appreciating and understanding and be sensitive to the idea that its a little bit unseemly, its this thing that we recognize in law enforcement as very utilitarian, the greatest good for the greatest number. which is not how all moral systems operate. but it is with cooperation. and so you have to tread ver...

To do the right thing in the right way for the right reasons every day and thats it, no matter what, whether its a big case or a small case. we didnt always get it perfect. were human beings too. and the theme of the book is that everyones a human being and is fallible and they have issues they have to deal with and they have pride and they have error. but the ideal was you do the right thing for the right reasons in the right way every day. and i want people to understand what the culture of th...

Against perhaps associates or members of his own family. and he looks like hes desperately now trying to get whats called a rule 35 motion, which is post-sentencing, post-conviction cooperation. and hes providing evidence. we saw a document that was put in just recently that reflected the search warrant that the southern district helped to execute and 19 or 20 pages was redacted relating to the campaign finance charges. that seems to indicate that there are things going on still. and the point a...

And in your case a federal prosecutor. >> part of the reason i wrote the book was i want people to understand how in the federal system, in particular the office that im aware of, the southern district, how thoughtful people are, how deliberative people are, how they didnt see the mission and shouldnt have seen the mission as simply locking people up or sending people to prison. that the job and the mission in that place as it should be was to do justice. and sometimes that meant prosecuting som...

Because my name was on every indictment, as its supposed to be. but the people who did the work, the real heroes that people dont know about in the country, are the men and women of the southern district of new york and other places in the justice department who quietly do the work in a non-partisan way following the law wherever it leads and the facts wherever they lead independently, aggressively and fearlessly. >> were probably heading into protracted high-profile hearings of some sort. if yo...
