Did I say that? No, but the police are a much larger organization, that isn't necessarily so organized. What the police do in one city has no real connection to what they may do in another city. The same can go for a few bad cops coercing confessions, though you still should take things with a grain of salt and look at all the evidence you can find, precisely because the police officers are still human and therefore capable of doing wrong even accidentally.

Heck, just looking at DNA evidence, which I use as evidence of this crime (and the other crimes Rodney was never officially tried for because he was already sentenced), we can see that it's not perfect. I still remember reading an article about a man who was almost coerced into falsely admitting to a crime because his DNA was found at the scene. It wasn't that the cops were intentionally trying to screw him or anyone had planted the evidence purposefully. It just happened that the paramedics who went to the scene had also dealt with this man a little earlier and didn't properly clean one of their machines. So the man's DNA was accidentally transferred underneath the victims fingernails.

The problem with The Innocence Project, is that they are small and so any bad actions reflect much more strongly on the group, bad actions like ignoring years old appeals and flooding the search engines to hide them. They had all the knowledge that this man was guilty, yet tried to not only set him free, but also get an actual innocent man (for this crime, the guy was a bit fucked, at least after this, and went on to do a terrible rape himself, which he did his time for) locked away. The Innocence Project attempted to lock up an innocent man, how does that not destroy their credibility? It shouldn't matter whether other groups are more or less credible.

You litterally started this conversation on the basis of credibility. And when asked “what’s worse, an innocent man going to jail or a guilty man going free?” Most people would say the innocent man going to jail. And I’m sorry but I think you view cops through rose coloured glasses. There’s a lot more abuse of power and corruption than we even know despite more and more video footage coming to light. The cops NEED the public to have faith in them, so when they do wrong they do everything they possibly can to cover it up to try and maintain that image. But times are changing and everything is on film these days and with that change I think cops and legal institutions ESPECIALLY in America need to change. No system is perfect but cops seem to run on this empty headed mentality of “that’s the way it is and I’m just doing my job” as though that makes them not responsible for being part of the problem or even worse not responsible for their actions which is incredibly hypocritical since cops have a hard on for holding other people accountable even when it wasn’t that persons actions. Sometimes they just wanna “get” someone.

I think that there are two real root problems here. I’m from Georgia where this happened so maybe My experiences only relate to the south but maybe not.

Cops are told that they should be absolutely ready to die every day and that their job is so important and scary and whatever. And like yeah it can be, but when it’s drove into your brain every day that you should absolutely be scared because someone is PROBABLY GONNA KILL YOU, you are gonna be more trigger happy, especially if you’re not trained enough in non lethal defense. This coupled with the fact that AT LEAST WHERE I LIVE a lot of white people are scared of black people. Even if they have black friends and think they aren’t racist, they wanna cross the street when they see a black person because they think they’re all thugs.

That’s my theory at least for the reason why Black people are shot more than whites people but white people are also not completely safe, which some racists like to use as evidence for “see cops aren’t racist, they shoot whites!! Black people do more crimes!”
