 There are groups which provide financing to those who can't pay, just as there are groups that will take on investigation and enforcement for a price.
+=== Judge and Jury ===
+If a crime is committed (murder, theft of property, breaking a contract), then a jury of peers will decide the fate of the accused. For serious crimes, this is generally very quick - within a few days of accusation. There are no judges in such courts - the jury decide guilt, legal interpretation and punishment.
+Evidence may be presented during the trial, but it's up to the prosecution and defence to obtain that evidence. There are groups that can be paid to do this, or the defence or prosecution can do it themselves. If the defence is locked up, has no friends to help them and no money to pay for someone to find evidence on their behalf, then the chance of being found guilty is very high.
+Having friends and being part of a social group on Zuflucht can be very important.
