Juryless rape trial pilot in disarray as Edinburgh and Glasgow lawyers back boycott
LAWYERS in Edinburgh and Glasgow have voted to boycott the Scottish Government’s plans for juryless trials in rape cases, warning that the pilot scheme could lead to miscarriages of justice.
You'll be disappointed by your peers.
In this day and age, a jury of peers is a punchline.

^ This is how feminists lie with rape conviction figures
True. That’s why I always post the link. To be a force multiplier for anyone arguing with an activist with an agenda.
Not to convince the activists. But anyone actually in the middle.
My guess, the lawyers know how fundamentally bad this is and easy to use against THEM that they'd rather boycott to kill it than play along.
Scotland is a complete joke, the English police have 0 authority and Wales....I don't know, they're probably just 2 steps less retarded than Scotland.
only white males get max sentence. everyone else gets slap on wrist for cultural sensitivity and sexual emergencies.

I’m so glad the people most in position to know how this will work out, the lawyers, are against this. I hope they keep up that resistance in the face of what will surely be a serious woke-jihad against them.
Huh? Prosecutors don’t bill by the hour, there’s no one to bill. Defense attorneys can but you’d think they’d want more hours, not less.
More white men.
This will not apply to the third worlders. In fact, it will used a means to ensure they are not convicted.
Lmao elite username.
Throwing presumption of innocence out the window is already done in Canada. Sexual crimes now have a different system, more discretion to throw out exculpatory evidence, with different ( lower ) standarts, and judges recieve brainwashing / "education".
The Feminist indoctrinatio is tp hammer-in that one must assume the accuser, no matter how obviously wrong, is just too traumatized to tell the truth so "he must be guilty of something, women would not lie about rape or sexual assault".
Anything else would be "revictimizing wimminz".
Those guidelines are largely a "how can we make sure the Gomeshi trial debacle can never happen again", the playbook.
