railroad

"To railroad" means to rig a situation such that events can only play out in a particular manner, or to a particular end. When applied to a trial, it means to manipulate the judicial system such that a defendant is virtually guaranteed a conviction. The metaphor derives from the nature of a railroad track, which does not offer a train the ability to choose its path of travel.
"The lead prosecutor railroaded Eddy into a first-degree murder conviction: she relied heavily on the testimony of unqualified experts."

"If you are hosting a murder-mystery party, avoid railroading your guests into quickly solving the case. Give them freedom to pursue tangents in the storyline they find interesting."

Rahil

He's hot, he's the top of the class, he plays more than one instrument, he's funny, he's extremely athletic and a little competitive, and most of all he's chill. You can throw shit at him and he'll ignore it. But don't cuz he's probably the nicest person on the face of the Earth. And he's single. But he's mine. In my dreams. lmao.
Person 1: Oh damn, Rahil has nice shoulders!

Person 3: hey person one, are you mentally ok?
