Spanish discuss recent wrongful FBI arrest of Oregon lawyer
The above article is very scary.
It makes it clear how badly the Oregon prosecutor and the FBI wanted to arrest this guy. There were only 7 similarities in the fingerprints.
Meanwhile the Spanish police correctly matched the prints to an Algerian national and arrested the right guy.
If our police and FBI are going to arrest people on evidence this sketchy, just because they don't like their religion, and are not going to be objective about the evidence, how can we trust them if we are jurors?
How can we not fear to be arrested falsely ourselves?
