MISHPATIM - JUSTICE DENIED IS GOD DENIED

from Deeper Look At The Parsha · host Rabbi Pini Dunner

Miscarriages of justice, such as the notorious Hudspeth case of 1892, the Johnson lynching of 1906, and the celebrated Sam Sheppard case in the 1950s, are very much part-and-parcel of our flawed justice system, demonstrating just how unjust it can be. Rabbi Dunner reveals a literary connection between the Torah directive for judicial integrity and one of the Ten Commandments, illustrating how wrongful conviction is not just about contempt for law and order, but is actually an affront to our belief in God.
