Sounds like another way to appeal. Murder is wrong and I shouldn't be telling you this. Honorless men with honorless rules!

Murder is wrong....

And so is forcing a defendant to prove his innocence when he's SUPPOSED to be innocent until proven guilty. I'm sorry that the AG's office doesn't like doing its job. But that doesn't mean the courts should just jump to assuming the prosecutor is right unless the defense attorney can prove otherwise. Where do we live?
