Dear Mr. Ant, I am appalled by this not that the kids were arrested as there may have been probable cause (slim, but possible), I am appalled because these kids were found guilty TWICE, when there was absolutely and unquestionably reasonable doubt. Now if you've been around Aldeer long enough, you know that I am one of the biggest supporters of our Criminal Justice system as I lived in it for most of my life, but it failed miserably in this case and there is no way around it. While I support the system, I try very hard not to be a hypocrite. When someone screws up and gets caught, they just have to live with the consequences. In this case all the consequences the judges will more than likely have to live with is the public shaming from here and 49ers Facebook page. Please help support this family and all they went through from a system failure, not pile on to the wrongdoings they suffered. Please note that I am not saying they are innocent, as I wasn't there, but I am saying there was absolutely no way to not find reasonable doubt, therefore, there is no way The State met its burden of proof. That is clear to anyone that reads the transcripts.
I love the rut. The woods are like a bunch of roided up meatheads fighting over a girl.
