    The friction is that Alec is not just an actor on that set, he’s also a producer so he has extra responsibilities.

    Yes.

    But in that case, the cops and prosecutors fucked up and the judge has taken the right course of action as prescribed by the courts.

    No. If the prosecutors fucked up on an otherwise valid case, discipline them and retry the case. Regardless or innocence or guilt, everyone should have a fair trial.

      That’s how the court system works. A fair trial also means for the accused. Otherwise, nothing stops the prosecutors of binding the accused in the court system until he runs out of money.

      The moment that the prosecution kept an evidence from the defense, the trial wasn’t fair for the accused.

      I get the frustration, but the other way around opens up the court system for a lot more abuse than we see now.

      If you want to argue about changing the court system, I agree with you, but it is out of scope for that case.
