would his plea deal have required him to admit that the law was just in some way typically they have you apologize or something when you admit guilt iirc

lol i just looked it up and the federal rear end in a top hat prosecutor who got him killed was not asked to resign by obama despite the outcry, but still ended up going into early retirement right before trump took office also wtf Carmen Ortiz's husband, IBM executive Tom Dolan, replied through his own Twitter feed, @TomJDolan, "Truly incredible that in their own son's obit they blame others for his death and make no mention of the 6 month offer."[76]

he wouldn't have served 35 years in prison. 35 years is what you get if you take the maximum sentence on all of his offenses and add them together. in reality probably all of those sentences would have been served concurrently and even under the max sentences he'd be facing something like 5 years in prison, and almost certainly way less

i think he should’ve taken the 6 months, which would still suck and feel like eternity in prison, but it would’ve been a worthwhile sacrifice and could have easily continued a long and awesome life that said, for him it may have been unimaginably stressful to face the police, fbi and the court so much that he felt he couldn’t take it and killed himself. this is a situation that almost no one in the world faces, and they were over the top and abusive. after his death, laws changed that minimized the penalties for crimes similar to his. the ones that brought these charges are psychopaths and probably don’t have an ounce of care that he died. they’re at fault for his death LP0 ON FIRE fucked around with this message at 03:01 on May 24, 2018 |

Carmen Ortiz, the federal prosecutor who hounded Aaron Swartz in the months before his Friday suicide, has released a statement arguing that "this office’s conduct was appropriate in bringing and handling this case." She says that she recognized that Swartz's crimes were not serious, and as a result she sought "an appropriate sentence that matched the alleged conduct – a sentence that we would recommend to the judge of six months in a low security setting." That's funny because the press release her office released in 2011 says that Swartz "faces up to 35 years in prison, to be followed by three years of supervised release, restitution, forfeiture and a fine of up to $1 million." And she apparently didn't think even that was enough, because last year her office piled on even more charges, for a theoretical maximum of more than 50 years in jail. If Ortiz thought Swartz only deserved to spend 6 months in jail, why did she charge him with crimes carrying a maximum penalty of 50 years?

attempting to force a plea via overcharging is unethical as hell part of the outcry against this case was from other prosecutors who pointed to how this was egregiously against federal guidelines and how the feds were even callous when informed that the accused was a suicide risk instead they told him to expect seven years of prison if he didn’t take the plea, if he wanted a trial. that’s unethical

Sham bam bamina! posted:well there's a marginalized group disproportionately targeted by our justice system according to the ADL it's a huge problem that the police ignore antisemitic hate crimes and there's certainly widespread jury bias against them historically in the american legal profession itself there was enormous discrimination against jews, which is why there are now distinctly jewish law firms, since no one else would hire them yeah i can see anyone in law enforcement treating someone like that just like any other white guy. sure.

i think he was great and what he did was ethically right and i am really loving sad that he made the decision to die when his sentence would likely have been minimal. its just a tragedy all round because it would likely have been a total non-issue within a few years of him leaving prison. the documentary about him is great and it is excruciating watching his ex crying about how hard it was to rat him out
