    Due process does not mean, “scott free until there’s a guilty verdict”, you utter numpty. These aren’t all civil charges.

      I suppose being rude makes you feel good, strong, and right.

      I know he’s rich, but a 200k bail is not Scott free. People pay bail all the time.

          Yes, sure. There are many issues with the bail system, but people should not be locked up without due process. Charges were brought, bail was set, and he’s awaiting trial. Time will tell the rest of it, but that’s not getting off Scott free.

            Most of us would be held during trial if we threatened the court personnel and violated gag orders the way he has.

            But it’s not a criminal trial (yet). We’ll see if that changes in Georgia.
