but the prosecution put up witnesses with what sounds like no credibility. then changing stories, conflicting stories. like i said, they may have made a huge mistake, but you have to prove it. they didn't. burden of proof is different in a civil case, so we'll all see how that comes out.

Oh I agree with you 100%. The problem is that Prosecutors and Cops work so close together. And it is almost political suicide for a Prosecutor to put cops away. Our judicial system is such a scam. If they felt threatened by the car--shoot the tires out. There is a reason why the felt the need to have the judge decide--because they knew a judge would not convict them.
