Michael Jackson found NOT Guilty

[Pete Hanlin]

Has anyone else been impressed by the way "Juror #1" handles himself. Seems like a thoughtful and intelligent fellow. Heaven forbid I ever find myself on trial for a crime, I hope the "jury of my peers" includes someone like this guy.

He had to stop being a cub scout leader - he was up to a pack a day!

Actually Pete, the whole jury performed well. After my initial shock and short outburst of anger (where there's smoke, there's fire IMO) I had a chance to listen to Mr Rodrigues (sp) and he made a lot of sense....even while being harrassed by the abrasive and under intelligent Nancy Grace. The job of the jury is to weigh the evidence, NOT their opinions, and come to a conclusion. He said, and from what little I know, the prosecution did not proove its case. One juror last night said he thought Jackson was a molester because of the case in the 90's, but the prosecution didn't provide enough evidence for a conviction in this case. He also said the mother of the molestee had little creditability.

I think the system worked the way it was supposed to.... so the weirdo walks. I hope he has the courtesy of laying low for the next 50 years or so, so we see as little of him as we do OJ and Blake.
