THUGZ: France Convicts Rwandan Ex-Officer of Genocide

John · Senior Member

There is not enough information provided to prove weather he is guilty or not. I think that more information should be acquired and another trial held for this crime.

Dj_DirtyDan · Veteran Member

more evidence needs to be presented first before any decision should be made or any actions be taken against this person.

Eusebio · Veteran Member

He should not be sentenced without more evidence, and there is not enough to convict him i believe.

gm0604 · Senior Member

I think it should be proven before he is sentenced because 25 years is a long time especially if he isn't guilty. I think they should further investigate.

Chapstick · Veteran Member

With such a serious topic as convicted of genocide or 25 years in prison, there needs to be more evidence to prove whether he committed that crime or not.

thanksobama · Veteran Member

I think that there should be more evidence needed to convict him since it is absent.

DeeFink · Veteran Member

Evidence must beshown before proven guilty.

therealobama · Veteran Member

you dont have to see a dead body to order your soldiers to commit genocide against a group of people.

Phil Song · Veteran Member

There is not enough information provided to prove his guilt. I think there needs to be more information.

There needs to be more evidence collected before he is convicted

Sauceboss · Veteran Member

I thin that they need to investigate this topic further in order to gather more evidence before proving him guilty.

ashtree · Veteran Member

I think more evidence needs to be gathered before he is found guilty and sentenced. There isn't enough to off on and if the prosecutors are sure he is guilty they should find more evidence to backup and justify their accusation in order to convict him.

Lynn14 · Veteran Member

I think that the court needs more evidence they don't seem to have enough go off of to prove that he is guilty.

Bernie · Veteran Member

they need more info before they convict him

DesmandCantu · Veteran Member

i do not know if he is guilty or not due to lack of evidence. But he should not be sentenced to 25 years without any solid evidence against him. It is unjust.

Dj_DirtyDan · Veteran Member

Also who on earth gave the judge her job? She convicted him so fast as if she/he saw the crime go down. hmm

Did France take any inspiration from us that "all suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law"? There has to be enough valid evidence to put Simbikangwa in prison.

Tristen · Veteran Member

He can no be convicted as guilty without them being 100% sure, they need evidence before they take action against him.
