And this is acceptable how?
Besides being extremely stupid (you don’t complain about the chef until after being served), surely this is just bang on crazy behaviour???
How can this man still wondering the streets?

I often wonder that myself, but we have a thing in America called "rich man's justice." Wealthy people can afford to hire lawyers that exploit the system by filing endless motions, slowing the legal process to a crawl, when finally convicted they're normally sentenced at the extreme low end of sentencing guidelines, normally servicing time in minimum security prisons, complete with very little violent crime, tennis courts, well stocked libraries, few or no fences, and lavish off site work details, often involving little more than clerical work at wealthy estates.
The same holds true in other areas. Back in the 1960's the Federal Government had plans for a stretch of interstate 90 to go through a wealthy community east of Seattle called Mercer Island. The citizens tied this project up in court for over 30 years, wedging concessions from the government such as tunneling under rather than paving over their land (the rich didn't want to noise to affect property values) lavish landscaping, jogging and bike paths, antennas built into the concrete so drivers and passengers would not have their cell phone communication and internet interrupted. After many years, this is still referred to as Interstate 90's "golden mile."
This is NOT how the framers of our Constitution envisioned things I'm sure, but this is where we are today. 😕
