Guilty
The verdict is out
Defendant is found guilty
Justice has been served
Democracy is not dead
So is freedom of the press
The law is working
There's no crime that does not pay
It applies to all
Power fades in the shadow
When the scale's tips are balanced

Thank you dear Ahavati. Honored for the RL. Yes. There must be balance of power for peace to reign. Equality will never be realized if power belongs only to the few.

Dear S,
“Power fades in the shadow
When the scale's tips are balanced” very impactful thought. With so much going on at once it takes super human strength of mind to keep it all in order. I very much appreciate your thoughts on law and order and the ultimate- justice. You are right, crime doesn’t pay! Well done. H🌷

Very powerful hashtag. There is a difference between news, responsible reporting and investigative journalism. The news on television often quotes newspapers because the real journalists are the ones putting the real work, bringing to light the truth.
Excellent write Summer.
