Ya think maybe 'biased' a tad bit, eh?
I grazed over all the videos of wrongful accusations and wonder why there weren't any "Donald Trump Falsely Accused" U-Toobs. Well, jeeze, it seem like when I do a search on 'donald trump falsely accused' all that comes up is about the Prez making unsubstantiated or false accusations against political opponents and other items.
Nothing about his new yerk conviction — that was entirely deserved.

If you've ever been the subject of "The News" you know how it distorts the story.

Federal investigation into false arrest of Phoenix woman continues one year later​

Nov 28, 2025
It's been one year since U.S. lawmakers called for a federal investigation into the wrongful arrest of a Valley woman. ABC15 asked Arizona Congressman Andy Biggs for an update. He says he recently asked for a face-to-face meeting with OIG federal investigators. Biggs and Ohio Representative Jim Jordan both signed a letter in November 2024 demanding accountability after U.S. Marshals wrongfully arrested then 66-year-old Penny McCarthy outside her Phoenix home in March 2024.

Albany police's legacy of wrongful convictions continues to grow​

ALBANY - Corey Young was reaching for some ice cream when a police officer grabbed him from behind and threw him to the ground inside a convenience store in Winston-Salem, N.C.

It was November 1996 and Young, then 29, was especially bewildered by the encounter because two Albany detectives that he recognized, Tony Ryan and Kenneth P. Wilcox, were standing by watching as he was taken into custody. He was handcuffed and sitting on a curb outside the store when Wilcox walked over and began reading him a Miranda warning.

TN Trooper now resigned after 13 'sober DUI' arrests: Is there a quota tied to grants?​

May 5, 2026 #WZTV #fox17news #foxnashville
One Tennessee Highway Patrol trooper's high number of dismissed DUI cases, internal THP emails, and accounts and records from two former troopers, are raising questions of a possible DUI arrest quota system, or at least significant pressure.
DUI arrests that later test negative for alcohol or drugs have been the focus of an ongoing FOX 17 News investigation. Tennessee has counted more than 2,500 'sober DUI' arrests since 2017, among all law enforcement agencies.
Trooper now resigned after 13 'sober DUI' arrests
FOX17 uncovered court records showing a former Bedford County THP trooper, Asa Pearl, made 13 DUI arrests in cases where drivers later tested negative for any drugs or alcohol, from 2020 to 2024. An additional 18 of Pearl's DUI arrests were also dismissed after blood alcohol levels tested below the legal limit. That's 31 DUI arrests altogether- dropped.
It's also 31 lives utterly disrupted amid the arrest. https://fox17.com/fox-17-investigates...
