Executions take place in the street. The gun has replaced the gavel and the person who pulls the trigger is the judge and jury. No longer are all innocent in the eyes of the law. Judgement occurs in a split second and the trial is held on the nightly news. The after the fact review is of no comfort at all. Families are ripped apart and no amount of money can give back shattered lives. It makes you wonder where did justice go?
