I'm sorry, I never meant to suggest that the Mountain Daily News portrayed this defendant as guilty. Not at all. There have been other, more sensationalistic accounts elsewhere. I meant that in general, this is the way we are supposed to view a criminal defendant.
I agree with Babs. There have ''been other, more sensationalistic accounts elsewhere." We felt those comments were very much out of line!
Thanks Babs:~)
No, I didn't get the impression that what was printed here was at all intended to be taken, "tried and found guilty" it is exactly as stated, thank you Editor.
