Discover why only 4% of serious crimes lead to prosecution and how America's $200 billion justice system really works behind the myths.

Melhor citação de America's Leaky Justice System Exposed

The system we have today—with its 18,000 law enforcement agencies and $200 billion annual budget—evolved specifically because crime has always been with us. We're incredibly harsh on the people we do catch, but it's not that we're effective at catching criminals; it's that we're extremely punitive once we do.
