It’s become easier to create doubt.
If there exists any reasonable hypothesis or explanation, based on the evidence or lack of evidence, that could lead a rational person to doubt the defendant’s guilt, then they must be found not guilty.
If I can be bothered it would take around 5 hours to create a Deepfake Video and cost less than 20 USD. Naturally, it all comes down to identifying a target and baselining your actual objective.
Trust but verify is common advice but it’s harder and harder to verify data or information especially when the unthinkable is actually happening.

The unity of all these countries against the mightly England was a powerful tool that spread pride and created inspiration for my father’s generation who struggled to even get a bank account in Sunny England.
Faster forward to now and that pride has sadly been eroded and dispersed but living in plain sight as an integrated competitor like Rebecca Leigh “Becky” Spencer British-born representing Jamaica.
