NOT THIS TIME LADY INJUSTICE . (Kat Williams Voice)
Across the globe and throughout history, countless tales have chronicled the stories of innocent individuals who have fallen victim to an imperfect justice system. A system that, though well-intentioned, often falters due to human error, prejudice, or even outright malice. The assertion that innocent men get arrested, that police can abuse their power, and that prosecutors sometimes convict innocent people is not a wild claim, but an unfortunate reality backed by evidence.
* The Arrest of Innocent Individuals:
* Reasons for Wrongful Arrest: Many reasons can lead to the arrest of innocent individuals. Mistaken identity is a common one, where a person can be arrested based on vague or inaccurate descriptions. Eyewitness misidentification can also lead to wrongful arrests. Sometimes, systemic biases, prejudice, or overzealous law enforcement officers eager to close a case can also contribute.
* Consequences: Wrongful arrests can ruin reputations, fracture families, and result in loss of employment. For the person at the center of it all, the psychological impact can be immense, leading to a lifetime of mistrust, fear, and trauma.
* Police Power Abuses:
* Breeding Ground for Misuse: The immense power and responsibility given to police officers can be misused. Whether driven by personal vendettas, racial or socio-economic biases, or even just a bad day, officers are not immune to human flaws.
* Manifestations: Power abuses can range from physical violence, planting evidence, to coercing confessions. Not only do these abuses undermine public trust in law enforcement, but they can also lead to the incarceration of innocent individuals.
* The Role of Prosecutors:
* Pressure to Convict: Prosecutors, especially in high-profile cases, are often under immense pressure to secure a conviction. This pressure can sometimes overshadow the pursuit of justice.
* Misconduct: There have been instances where prosecutors have withheld exculpatory evidence, used unreliable witnesses, or sought convictions based on weak or circumstantial evidence. While many prosecutors are dedicated to their duty, it only takes a few instances of misconduct to destroy lives.
* The Bigger Picture:
* Systemic Problems: The issues highlighted above are symptoms of deeper systemic problems. Lack of proper oversight, gaps in training, the allure of career advancement, systemic biases, and the absence of checks and balances can all contribute to a system where innocent individuals suffer.
* Reform is Needed: To ensure justice is served, comprehensive reforms are necessary. This could include better training for police officers, stringent oversight mechanisms, prosecutorial accountability, and a re-evaluation of the incentives present in the justice system.
In conclusion, acknowledging that the justice system has flaws is the first step to rectifying them. Innocent individuals should never have to bear the brunt of these shortcomings. The focus should always be on true justice, not just the appearance of it. By shining a light on these issues, society can take proactive steps to ensure that the innocent are protected, and the guilty are rightly convicted.

Attorney Foley, I was loving your story…..until the end. The man in the purple suit is prey to the men in black…and blue. But hey, I know the feeling….me a 59 year old white woman, no criminal record, homeowner, good citizen award winner rents to two guys. Turns out they are both textbook narcissists, mentally ill, and criminals. They make numerous false accusations that I am "stalking" them, coming into their room, stealing, etc., etc. Then, I am in my bedroom, door locked and I hear a knock. It's the 46 year old Black guy from Chicago, using the ruse of returning an item to me to get me to come out into the kitchen. And then…BAM! I walk out and get arrested by Deputy Christie of Pinellas County Sheriff's Department. I got it on my cell phone, accidentally. My poor sweet dog is running around, scared, and the criminals are playing with her. So I get a no contact order tacked on by the state, and get legally kicked out of my own home of 14 years, and the two criminals are given free reign. I almost didn't survive three months on the streets of Pinellas trying to afford $100/night hotel rooms (seedy still). I had two of my computers stolen and I believe most likely by police for some good reasons. My public defender is great and we're waiting on the b.s. discovery for him to write a nolle pross letter. I was bullied by criminal tenants and by every PCSO deputy that responded to their numerous false claims. So I stopped talking to deputies cause they were hoping for that to go south for me. Anyway, just venting. Would love to find a civil rights attorney to go after the sheriff's department. I have tons of video footage of this, and other "calls for service"over 14 years of living in what I affectionately call "hood lite" where I was turned into the perpetrator. And I am not a foul mouthed, histrionic, scumbag. I just refuse to accept their misstatements of law, of tenant/landlord rights, of why they won't take a report of vandalism by the one renter, and on and on. I am trying hard to put together all my documentation to illustrate exactly how these guys discriminated against me, based on gender, race, and even disability. It is blatant in the videos and in the actual incident reports. A third grader could see it. I have vocal chord disorder, but they call me "manic" because I am sometimes struggling for air when I talk, and especially when I am being intimidated and bulleyed. Well, I did not mean to write so much, cause I know I am pissin' in the wind, per usual. There's no accountability and that's why they're out of control and many folks just hate 'em. Sheriff Gualtieri has created a monster and I really, really, really wish I could use my story to prove that, and ….to change it. So I"ll just leave this here then. I appreciate your channel and what you're about.
The bible says Jesus saw the blind and people who were hungry and tired and He was moved with compassion. I think that's what happened with you in court… you were moved by the compassion of God. You felt a small amount of the love and concern God has for this man. Good job
Oh what an honour it would be (!) to not be liked by the salivating guard dogs of a corrupt capitalist system, intent as they are in persecuting "the usual suspects"! Though they may not like you, we on the other hand (including the man in the purple suit) , love you.
You should have helped him take action for the violation of his rights, fair play for helping but you are part of that institution and you make alot of money from the system that you'll prove injust…… if the person has enough money…thats not a fair legal system in any sense
If the state prosecutor knew the case was so weak after 2 days, then why pursue and steamroll an innocent man. This is gross. Prosecutors covering up bad policing!! Can’t just drop the case outright, bc that makes the cops look ignorant. Thank you for donating your time to help this hard, hustling man.
Love your stories and the fact that you're a good person. Keep em coming
If they entered without a warrant then can you proceed with a civil rights violation?
Homesick. For more than one reason, but Roger P Foley is one of them.
Great humanitarian act, for The man in the Purple Suit…🔮🔮
Alrighty, you found Huggybear!
This is a good attorney good luck to you brother 👍
ROGER P. FOLEY, P.A. = WHEN PASSION FOR JUSTICE OUTWEIGHS PERSONAL POLITICAL AGENDA.
Bullshit!! If he is black he is guilty. That simple
Don't lawyers have to do pro bono work? By law or something?
nevr met a bully who wanted to fight fair. truth does not matter.
Sir, sometimes you have to defend yourself cause the attorneys will not do their job or uphold their oath to defend their clients to the best of their abilities. Yet they do not do their job and instead opt for a plea deal. I should know about this cause it happened to me, but I asserted my sixth amendment rights in a motion to the court as well as informing the court that I was also giving notice for a oral motion to suppress the warrantless arrest along with the state troopers sworn affidavit. I won my case thanks to Google Search
Great video Foley!! Distracted driving and all. Glad you didn't hit anyone. I'll bet you know a good lawyer though.
Great story. Thank you for helping the guy out pro bono. There are places in Florida, although the name of the town escapes me at the moment, where LEOs repeatedly harass people they have deemed via AI to likely be a problem and try to get them to leave town. I do hope Mr. Purple Suite is not one of those being harassed.
What a swell story. It's too bad that the people that are sworn to uphold the law are given a free pass to lie. The police unions, states prosecutors, mayors, chiefs of police cover their backsides.
It's always been the good old boys system and if one has a lot of money to pay a good lawyer they can skate. The statue of lady justice, blindfolded, is a load of b.s. She didn't blindfold herself, the previously mentioned people did.
Ur a good guy brother, but u also have to make a living
This is what I really dislike about our current legal system. If you don't have money, if you can't afford an attorney, then you get no justice.
Enjoyed the story 😂
