Why does everyone assume they are guilty? I know the government lies pretty much about everything. I know they falsely arrest people. I know they plant evidence. I know the convict innocent people. I know they lie under oath. I know they force innocent people to plead guilty. I also know they can do this again and again and again and again and nothing will happen to them. As soon as they start arrested judges and prosecutors and putting them in jail for sending innocent people there, then perhaps we might see something change.
When I see something like this, I immediately assume they are lying. If you did too you'd be right more times than wrong.
