@itisnotmydog@obrienlann@isislaz If the conviction is sound, independent testing only strengthens it. If it isn’t, justice demands we know. Truth shouldn’t have an expiration date.
@obrienlann@itisnotmydog@isislaz Evidence doesn’t lose value because it might confirm the conviction instead of overturning it. The value of testing is that it reveals the truth. If the conviction is sound, the results will strengthen it. If not, justice requires us to know.
Ronaldo absolutely didn't need to pass it there, but he did it anyways for Bruno
Bruno when he absolutely must pass to Ronaldo chooses not to
Ronaldo didn't need any support throughout his career, and in the end when he needed it the most, he was betrayed by his own 💔
The case that shocks me most is Anthony Ray Hinton.
He spent nearly 30 years on death row for a crime he didn’t commit.
The prosecution’s own experts couldn’t conclusively match the bullets.
Yet he lost three decades of his life.
The case raised difficult questions about medicine, law, and ethics.
When does life truly end?
Who gets to decide?
Years later, Jahi McMath's story remains one of the most controversial medical cases in recent history.

A 13-year-old girl was declared legally dead.
But her heart was still beating.
The case of Jahi McMath sparked a worldwide debate about what "death" actually means.
Doctors said she met the criteria for brain death.
Her family disagreed.

@obrienlann@itisnotmydog@isislaz Evidence isn’t valuable only when it exonerates. Its value lies in revealing facts. If we’re confident in the conviction, testing should confirm it—not be feared.
@itisnotmydog@obrienlann@isislaz The fact that a court denied testing doesn’t mean the evidence lacks value. Courts rule on legal standards; evidence answers factual questions. Those are related, but they’re not the same thing.
@itisnotmydog@obrienlann@isislaz You’re citing a legal ruling to answer an evidentiary question. The court addressed whether the statute entitled Reed to testing—not whether every possible result of that testing would be devoid of information.
@obrienlann@itisnotmydog@isislaz The 2017 opinion explains why the court denied testing under the statute. It doesn’t prove the evidence lacks value. A legal ruling and an evidentiary question are not the same thing.
@itisnotmydog@obrienlann@isislaz You’ve gone from explaining why the evidence lacks value to citing agreement with the court. That’s an appeal to authority, not a demonstration that the evidence is actually worthless.
@itisnotmydog@isislaz@obrienlann You’re assuming the conclusion you’re trying to prove. The whole debate is whether the testing could provide relevant information. Simply declaring it wouldn’t clarify anything isn’t an argument.
@itisnotmydog@obrienlann@isislaz If your position is simply that the result wouldn’t legally overturn the conviction, then we’ve moved beyond whether the evidence is worth testing. You’re now arguing about legal remedies, not the value of obtaining the evidence itself.
@itisnotmydog@obrienlann@isislaz You’re no longer arguing the evidence lacks value. You’re arguing the value doesn’t matter because the case is old. That’s a very different claim.
@itisnotmydog@isislaz@obrienlann That’s a false dilemma. Nobody is arguing every object must be tested. The argument is that potentially probative evidence shouldn’t be ignored simply because the result might be inconvenient.
@obrienlann@itisnotmydog@isislaz Evidence doesn’t become unnecessary because you’re confident in the outcome. If the DNA already proves the case, more testing can only confirm it.
