Newsflash: Roman Empire Adopts Habeas Corpus
Submitted by Loyal Yank on Fri, 02/01/2013 - 16:46"I answered them that it was not the custom of the Romans to give up anyone before the accused met the accusers face to face and had opportunity to make his defence concerning the charge laid against him..." Acts 25:16 ESV
Even the Roman Empire valued Habeas Corpus. In this case, it eventually led to the Apostle Paul appearing before Caesar.
Discuss.
