0:00 [Music] all right let's talk about wrongful convictions uh California passed a new law where if you were wrongfully convicted for every day that you spent in jail when you shouldn't have you get paid 140 bucks nice but after tax it's $8 a day damn I wonder if you can argue is there ever like an enough I wonder if right let's say you own like five car dealerships right and you're ████ and every day that you're not at your car dealership you took a loss of like 10 grand or whatever right so then can you say well actually my time is worth way more than that well maybe that's the minimum and you could do like a civil suit possibly I I think that's complex like 140 bucks a day for 365 days is 51k
0:51 after are you getting taxed on that too of course you're going to get tax and then it's not like so regular that's not even like a high enough salary in a sense to like live in the middle class or anything like that but then you're in prison so you're also suffering at a a completely different level and it's ████ over your probably your relationships with people who thought you were guilty maybe you're if you were a father or a mother you know what I mean you're being stripped from your family major handicap during the rebuild yeah that's kind of crazy but as a taxpayer who's totally innocent of a bunch of ████ it's like I don't know where my money is going why are you even wrongfully convicting them that money should go from the the prosecutor or whoever put them in jail you know what I mean there are some idiots that were commenting that the jury should pay what the ████ why they got they for they were forced to go well can he said idiots so
1:44 it's idiots that's why or that the judge who's going to but then people are like uh who do you think pays the ████ judge you idiot like the the lawyers the prosecutors and stuff like that because like when you're a lawyer right even if you're fighting for the wrong side and you know you're you're fighting to win because you're fighting for money but what if the prosecutor is the the the city prosecutor like the what if they're a public defender or or a or they're not public defender the um what do you call it the lawyer the attorney public attorney the appointed attorney da or the da yeah sorry da district attorney cuz if you if the da gets penalized that's still City money well then you ain't getting bonuses or holidays that year dang is lawsuits never come out of their pocket lawsuits against cops lawsuits against City officials it's
2:34 just taking your own money that's the thing but if you have also no consequence against yourself then you're never going to like either okay and I get it I'm not trying to be black and white with something that's Case by case literally and super complex I'm just saying like it's uh very if I was never punished for wrongfully doing something if you know I you know put somebody Behind Bars and that was a huge mistake but I'm not punched for it I'm not going to give a flying ████ that's true yeah you know but I think the biggest question is who's going to tighten their butthole back up you know you know who should get punished what you know who should get punished the def the defense attorney that sucked so bad that sucked so bad that his client got convicted when they were innocent but I feel like once lawyers do that the same
3:24 people who are like I have your files somewhere sorry I'm late judge But the irony is they already didn't win so they didn't even win anything in that time yeah but damn that like imagine if you get a suck ass lawyer and you know you didn't do it and that lawyer just can't organize the ████ no one's going to want to be a lawyer anymore then realistically funds for a good lawyer you're getting that type of lawyer also if you're wrongfully convicted maybe somebody else should have been convicted for the crime that you're being prosecuted for whoever that person is they need to pay double oh ████ cuz they've they've also been Scot free for however many days that you've been in prison no money though what if they're just like as people can pay in different ways oh I like it is there is there going to be punishment for the system for ████ up cuz usually like what ends up happening
4:15 we are the punishment yeah people blame the government right but I've been kind of thinking about this like it's like oh let's blame the ████ court system or whatever right but that's a boogeyman it's not the way why can't we get the people that were involved that ████ up and then go be like yeah this judge ████ up this jury ████ up this person ████ up like our money should not be going to them anymore that's all the thing is the jury is only going off of what's being proven in front of them so that they're they're kind of innocent in that situation they they they are suffering by being jury da judge prosecut they don't it just goes on a record as well because if you let's say if you wrongfully convict like three people you know what I'm saying I'm not even saying like be punished I'm just saying like we better not see you like rise the ranks over time yeah like do you think that's a disbarment it's hard to say because
5:06 maybe they're also being provided with evidence that they're just making their best decision I'm just saying if you Happ have a record of wrongfully convicting people multiple times that should say something you know what I mean it's it shouldn't be like now you're appointed a supreme court like position or there shouldn't be some sort of elevated hiring when when somebody else maybe was doing you got to flip your ratio yeah yeah like here's an interesting component then why do you think what what do you think the highest uh reason is why people get wrongfully convicted this will pinpoint exactly who to punishment is it because um a lot of people look the same of the same race yeah oh so 7 72% of all wrongful convictions is because of an eyewitness testimony that wasn't true see and then it's like you know when when people have
5:57 never seen Asians before they think we look the same so if they saw a Korean guy and then like later on they point out a Chinese guy yeah yeah damn but I didn't do nothing 72% that's freaking High man eyewitness somebody that swears it was them and they were wrong so should the eyewitness go to jail I think yeah I think the eyewitnesses that falsely accused should get in trouble that that's also hard because then it's like you're going to promote it in a way that like people will never want to be in they'll never want to be risk of themselves versus bad things yeah but then eyewitness doesn't work a lot of times you know what that is also true like it's been proven that it's it's the most shiest thing to rely on dude their memory suck so bad yeah you ever seen that that um social it's like an experiment with this guy like robs like a purse from this table and
6:48 then he comes back as the cop oh yeah and then they're all like he's like can you describe the guy and and they don't know that it's him like he's like I literally just stole it also like when people are in stressful situations it's just the brain just works differently yeah it's like the guy that I got in the um I I didn't get in a car accident with him but he was a part of the accident uh two nights ago and his reculation of the the situation was so very different that was like super off it was super off but he was also like the same guy that's just like wait so how do I file a claim how do I so it's just like you're dealing with people like that who are just incoming things in General trying to like I winess sucks it does yeah some people just might be like I don't really remember but I you did it cuz you I just hate you it's also really susceptible to power of suggestion cuz in this experiment that guy who was acting like the cop was just
7:39 saying ████ like did he have like a logo on his back like yeah he was just saying ████ they'd be like yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah but he didn't no like he was just saying whatever he's like was it like a purple hoodie damn it's also been proven too the lower the IQ the more you can implant memory into them yeah you could make them believe that like just by your suggestion that's what happened then maybe maybe then the compensation needs to be a tier package maybe we should focus on instead of like punishment because like it's so complex then then it's like incentive based right so like if you're in jail for like less than a year then like 140 bucks a day it's like I get it it sucks but you're getting something even though it's wrongful conviction but if you're gone for like two 3 years or like 5 years it's not to say like you got to pay them more maybe but maybe there's
8:30 got to be just like grander incentives I don't know like greater public apologies um discounts from like government services for a certain period discount where where no where no money is coming out of our pockets for year for just something where it's like it's not so clearly cuz you know money if you just give Straight Cash then that's like you know one pool of funds from taxpayer taxpayer dollars but there's a there's a bunch of different places that our taxpayer dollars go to that can be like sub subsidize in different categories of perks you know what would be the the messed up Westworld season 3 method of fixing this they would go okay we're going to use AI to figure out where your life trajectory would be had you not gone to jail and you're going to get that oh that's kind of crazy imagine AI is like yeah you would have ended up in a tent on this that's what I'm saying dude oh ████ that would
9:22 be so ████ so rigged woke though the woke though so it's uh it's it's fixing the problems it ain't going to help us then damn the AI that they would use will always have the same outcome so they don't have to pay a lot yeah dude that's and somebody just hacking ai ai at that point too you're just going to get into those issues there's no like there's no there there's it really is no enough in terms of Retribution for someone that's wrongfully convicted oh and also you get the double jeopardy Clause oh so then if you do it yeah so if you're like wrongfully convicted of like murdering a ████ it's like you get to go out and like murder a ████ or you get like on credit you get one pass yeah yeah yeah you don't have to do it you don't have to use it you just have to get out of jail free card for that crime no J Double Jeopardy but you have to do it the exact same way oh jeez oh no new murders or if the sentence was 5 years
10:13 but you only served one you can only do 20% of that crime oh now you're talking I like it
