    Why is this guy not in jail waiting for the case to be brought up?

      He was, but if I recall correctly the Romanian law has a limit of 3 months (?) they can keep someone in jail waiting for the trial. As much as I (dis)agree with the sentiment of “jail is for poor people”, this is not the case here.

      EDIT: Additionally, I think it’s okay for him to serve his time only after the due process. This is what makes it fair instead of it being a lynch. Hopefully it’s sooner rather than later.
