Ronn continues to follow the Central Park 5/Jogger case far more closely than I. Well, he's getting assistance from Ray these days. . . Any road up, there's a new(ish) piece up at The Village Voice: Features: A Journey Through the Tangled Case of the Central Park Jogger by Sydney H. Schanberg:

Every now and again, we get a look, usually no more than a glimpse, at how the justice system really works. What we see—before the sanitizing curtain is drawn abruptly down—is a process full of human fallibility and error, sometimes noble, more often unfair, rarely evil but frequently unequal, and through it all inevitably influenced by issues of race and class and economic status. In short, it's a lot like other big, unwieldy institutions. Such a moment of clear sight emerges from the mess we know as the case of the Central Park jogger.

All of which applies to other cases equally well, but I think you can mention these issues in this context with less hysterical shrieking from the right-wingers at this point.

I could confirm this by checking, say, InstaPundit or one of them other fools, but it's getting harder to even feign interest in what they have to say. . .
