I can’t understand most of this incomprehensible rant, but this goes both ways. The law uses arcane rules to keep people in or keep people from seeking justice at all.
Often the arcane rules are really the only thing that helps people. For instance, in some states there are time limits on appealing a case, so even if you do find some you can’t present it. The only option at that point may be to prove a mistrial in order to even present the new evidence.
You would think we have people involved to keep the whole thing empathetic and human, but… You’d be wrong, and maybe people are just fucking awful anyway.
In most cases though people don’t try. The state throws so much red tape at them they just plead out to avoid the hassle. Out justice system is really designed for efficiency st this point and not for justice. We’re too cheap to invest in actual justice.
