State's Attorney, or States Attorney or US Attorney, district court judge, appeals court judge, state supreme court justice, federal judge, SCOTUS justice. It's all about career and money. If you're charged with a crime and don't have money or you're in a civil legal battle and don't have money, you get shit representation and shit justice if you get any justice at all.
The deck is stacked in criminal cases. Cops and prosecutors can lie their asses off to you and there's nothing you can do about it. And bad things happen...just ask Marty Tankleff. But you better not lie to the cops or prosecutors...you'll be convicted of lying even though they can't make a case that you actually broke any of the laws they originally charged you with...just ask Martha Stewart. What do they call it..."obstruction of justice", eh?
Now there's a sick fucking joke to accuse anybody but the lawyers and judges of obstructing justice in this so-called system of justice.

How dare you question the police, Ike. If McCready knew the case would turn like this, he should have just got in a fight with Marty and shot him dead. Use the defense that they were struggling over his gun. Yea, yea, that's the ticket. Money for nothing, and your XXXX for free.
