Anyone who doesn't fear our legal system just hasn't been around any courtrooms or for that matter, they've been asleep for the last couple decades.
There have been some very high profile/publicized cases in which the accused walked with overwhelming evidence against them. Too, during court proceedings, due to some kind of crazy technicality, very pertinent information regarding the cases was legally withheld. O.J. Simpson and Casey Anthony cases come to mind.
I once sit in on a deposition in which one of the lawyers made a sarcastic, off record comment as to having a 'slam dunk' case. The opposing attorney looked across the table, smiled and said, " competent counsel knows those don't exist".
The opposing attorney's comment summed things up nicely.
