Have the other cases of perjury convictions for lying about adultery been posted yet? Probably there are so many we should open a new thread for them so this one doesn't get all cluttered up with case citations.
LOL. The law must be upheld. Everyone lying in a court of law must be tried for perjury - and all are treated equally, obviously, no question of special treatment depending on your stature or status!
E, you miss the beauty of this argument... every single case contested in every single court should require a conviction for perjury.. Because if there are two sides in a contested case, one is found guilty, or acquitted. Meaning that the losing side must - by definition - be lying, under oath. And as jla has said, that's perjury - to be prosecuted with the full rigour of the law.
I think we can probably manage to fill a thread, citing people who have lied, in a court, under oath... ROFLMAO.
Now, how about the lawyers who represent these wicked, sinful perjurers? They should be charged not only with aiding and abetting, but with conspiracy to commit said crime (perverting the course of justice) - and since conspiracy to commit a misdemeanour or felony is automatically a felony, every lawyer who's lost a case is therefore a felon, just biding his time before getting just deserts... |
