Public Records [Re: persecution members irate why honasan was let off the hook by injustice secretary gonzales. who probably made a secret deal]

Media broadcasts and printed matters are NOT public records however accurate they may be. They become public records only when accepted as evidence in a trial or official inquiry, or when a judge simply says so, but not before. Media broadcasts and printed matter will also become public record if used within, as enclosure/attachment, or even in some cases as references to an official function that generates a report of its activity regarding a matter brought before it.

Public records may be sealed by a judge from perusal by the general public, e.g., a minor's adoption record or anything that may unduly embarrass or endanger any party. Only a court order can unseal such records.

Introducing evidence is not the same as accepting as evidence. Evidence accepted by the court for inclusion in the Record of Trial are the only evidence that will be considered in deciding guilt, not guilty, mistrial, or no case. It can also affect a judge's decision to recluse himself and to allow or disallow so many things and persons during the proceedings. It will also be used during the appeals process where additional evidence may be introduced and accepted.

Public records are OFFICIAL and usually accessed by the general public (and the media) in courthouses, municipal halls, government libraries and archives, and other government offices such as congress and police departments. Some public records are on the Internet or an agency's intranet.

Public records are almost always already authenticated--not necessarily as to content--and very possibly admissible as evidence in a court of law without too much examination or challenge.

Evidence speaks for itself.

The Rules of Evidence were imposed not just to help convict the accused but ALSO to protect witnesses, court personnel, law enforcers, plaintiffs, the wrongly accused and the wrongfully accused. The Rules also protect the evidence itself.

If the persecution...sorry, he-he-he...PROsecution cannot hurdle the tests imposed on its case evidence, there can be no conviction, plain and simple. Going ahead with a half-baked case is unreasonable and a waste of time and can hurt many innocent people. Ask Nifong about this.

On the other hand, the accused is under no obligation to introduce evidence on his own behalf, but any evidence so introduced also gets the same protection. The burden of proof lies with the perse...I mean, PROsecution. This is the case in Pinas and most everywhere else.

Hard evidence don't necessarily convict a person with high support, that is Pinas and we all know it.
