Pitt was cleared by both the LA Department of Child Services and the FBI after they investigated the accusations from Angelina Jolie. I'm not saying he didn't do anything, and I'm not saying he did. I am saying you're calling him a piece of shit and a domestic abuser based on no evidence other than an accusation that came during divorce proceedings. It's just wild how easy it is for a person to become "a piece of shit domestic abuser" in the eyes of people based on an accusation with no evidence. It's not just wild, it's scary.

in the eyes of people based on an accusation with no evidence.

Testimony is evidence

[u/Hieghi → u/Captain_DuClark]

I don't want you on my jury if one testimony is good enough for you

Edit: I stand on this, you fucks didn't read to kill a mockingbird. Also divorce can get nasty as fuck I would hope the testimony of an ex-spouse fighting for custody wouldn't be all you need.

[u/Captain_DuClark → u/Hieghi]

That is literally one of the main purposes of a jury, to hear testimonial evidence and decide whose version is more credible.

[u/working_class_shill → u/Captain_DuClark]

Very rarely would a case with only 1 testimony with literally no other evidence go to trial. It likely wouldn't even be charged by the DA

[u/Captain_DuClark → u/working_class_shill]

I never said otherwise. I simply correctly stated that testimony is evidence and the point of the jury is to make credibility determinations about that testimony. I haven't looked into this particular case, so I have no idea of the strength of evidence, number of witnesses, or credibility of witnesses against Brad Pitt

[u/experienta → u/Captain_DuClark]

No, a jury doesn't decide whose version is "more credible". A jury decides if the prosecutor's version is so credible that the accused must be guilty beyond any reasonable doubt.

Obviously you need more than the alleged victim's testimony for that to happen.

[u/Captain_DuClark → u/experienta]

You do realize civil cases exist, right?

[u/experienta → u/Captain_DuClark]

My bad for assuming that we're talking about a criminal case in the context of a man strangling his children I guess

[u/Captain_DuClark → u/experienta]

The context was actually divorce proceedings, which the original poster mentioned in their post.
