The situation is horrendous, and panders to the non-USAian's belief that the USA legal system is horribly broken beyond repair, and that justice is frequently seen not to be done.

However, this, while newsworthy, doesn't seem to have any particular relevance to HN. It's not about hacking, or CS, or entrepreneurship, or startups. It's not even something that's "deeply interesting."

I'm willing to listen to anyone who can argue a case for this belonging here on HN, but it seems to fall foul of http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html where it says:

    Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or
    sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting
    new phenomenon. ... If they'd cover it on TV news,
    it's probably off-topic.
