Just because many things can do something doesn't negate a discussion about one of the things. Your point (which it barely is one) isn't really interesting or useful.
It effectively does for the average person person. You think you have a tiny ability to change or influence it, when in fact you do not, at least not while exercising the range of options and risk you find acceptable*. It is not of much different design today than during the Salem Witch Trials, 300 years ago, and sits in the one branch of government with next to zero democratic levers of control. The justice system is effectively a natural disaster or act of god to the typical person.
Most people harm themselves more by considering it anything more than a fixed system to be calculated against, bashing their head into a wall for no gain.
Anyone with means will generally try to put their business, their wealth, and their residence all in separate countries/jurisdictions to ensure their exposure to any particular flood is minimized. Ironically actual career criminals are often the most hedged because they always have dirt on someone higher up so they can horse-trade away charges right at the source before they interact with judge and prosecutor. This is why low level drug users or ignorant drug mules often get hemmed up far worse than their suppliers when caught.

Perhaps I am atypical for HN, but I see a clear distinction between corrupted legal systems or layers in society (most lawyers in general), and force majeure* from natural disasters: the average person isn't paying taxes to make sure natural disaster continues happening, and history has shown that system collapse is often preceded by intolerable taxation used in offensive ways. Average persons holding pitchforks...
Keep in mind that Klayme wasn't the only victim of this shoddy prosecutor: while he had to navigate the prison bitch brothels, the real perpetrator might continue the abuse with same and possibly many other victims!
Can we please discuss how misattributions like this can be prevented, and think of ways to align the interests of all parties?
