From a programmer point of view it makes as much sense as deleting a file if it fails to load. Not sure why poor argumentation skills should be the cause to a 2.4M fine. They are unrelated. The woman is not to blame, the system is for not managing situations like this. Like I am to blame if I don't manage exceptions in my code.

Trials are to be judged on the evidence presented in court. This is notoriously not always the case, but it is the way the law is supposed to be.
That's what I was saying. It is not justice. It doesn't matter if this is the definition of a trial. Invent a word for something better... And invent that something too. Until then, law is flawed.
