Along the lines of what I posted last week about the New Hampshire court system teetering on the edge of disaster, the lawyer who runs the court system in New Hampshire is in the Nashua Telegraph today declaring what I believe could potentially be some excellent news:
“Cutting the number of court session days could lead to an unacceptably long delay for lower-profile criminal defendants who could be released because they weren’t given a speedy trial, Broderick said.” He also says that “You could have some lower-end people walking. I don’t say it as a threat, because it’s a very real possibility(.)” What an excellent possibility indeed.
And by the way, these people aren’t “lower end.” They are human beings no better than you or I.
I think by “lower-profile criminal defendants” he potentially means people who haven’t actually hurt anyone else. What a novel idea……. not throwing people into a human cage who haven’t actually hurt someone.
