94 u/RibboDotCom 5d ago Yeah imagine trying this defence on a judge. That's just asking to be slapped with the maximum sentence for treating the judge like an idiot. 58 u/YobaiYamete 5d ago Redditors love to think they can use Kindergarten logic against judges and somehow win I literally see people on Reddit constantly imagining they would smirk at the judge and say WHELL ACTHUALLY I TECHNICALLY DIDN'T DO X XD and have the judge give up and let them off 14 u/kittyonkeyboards 5d ago Yeah that type of technicality stuff only works if you're doing corporate crimes. 21 u/DBCrumpets 4d ago The reason it doesn't work is because this isn't a technicality, it's just obviously a lie and courts aren't exceedingly gullible. 4 u/stiff_tipper 5d ago that doesn't work because of "technicality stuff" it works because of handing stacks of cash over to ppl in power
