Law enforcement makes an arrest. Criminal prosecutors charge the arrestee. A judge runs a trial. A jury makes a decision on guilt. In the case of the jury deciding the individual is guilty, there is a punishment applied. In the most severe offenses being guilty, the individual might get an execution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lynchings are where the individual gets an execution without a trial. A mob kills the individual. Or it might be a smaller group. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Law enforcement killing someone they sought to arrest circumvents justice where they are supposed to uphold it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I read The Red Record: Tabulated Statistics and Alleged Causes of Lynching in the United States in 2015.
