Prosecution

The Judicial branch is our court system. We start with the County courts, District courts, Circuit courts of appeal, and lastly Supreme Court. I believe our court systems has been compromised. I don’t believe everyone gets a fair trial and it’s hard to be able to afford good lawyers. But fortunately, we have pro bono lawyers. I believe these lawyers genuinely want to help those in need. For our court system it’s a vital lifeline, especially if someone is falsely accused. Don’t underestimate the severity of the situation. It’s as simple as being in the wrong place at the wrong time, or poor circumstances. In 2004 Hurricane Ivan hit, Marsha Colbey, her husband and six children lost their home. They went from their relaxing southern coastal life into a crowded FEMA trailer. She was also pregnant and everything was about survival. They both had to start all over and find new jobs. Marsha ended having a still born, neither her or her husband could afford to give their baby a proper burial. So instead, decided to bury their baby in the back yard. Long story short a nosy neighbor saw that Marsha was no longer pregnant no signs of a baby. Later Marsha was convicted with first-degree murder without parole. Luckly Marsha was defended by Bryan Stevenson a pro bono lawyer and later she was released. There are many other stories like this in his book “Just Mercy.” And this is why, we should not be so quick to dismiss our prisoners. In reality if our Judicial Branch becomes corrupt. Any one of us could end up in a bad situation. I am always cautious who is in our judicial branch for the sake of our fellow citizens until proven guilty.

Matthew 10:26 “Therefore do not be afraid of them. Nothing is concealed that will not be revealed, nor secret that will not be known.”

Matthew 10:27 “What I say to you in the darkness, speak in the light; what you hear whispered, proclaim on the housetops.”

Matthew 10:28 “And do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather, be afraid of the one who can destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.”
