Re: I sure rightpondian corporations are Jealous
True, but in order to jail someone, the police needs to be called, an investigation conducted, and charges filed by the District Attorney. Then there's an arraignment where the defendant pleads guilty or not guilty.
If not guilty, then the case has to be tried in court. Here in the U.S. we have two different types of trials: A bench trial in which the presiding judge makes the determination and the jury trial where your peers judge your innocence or guilt.
Private corporations must involve law enforcement if a crime has been committed and they want to jail the person.
