I have 3 things to say on this thread.
(1) I amazed that it lasted longer than 4 posts without being closed.
(2) I live in Florida and could never really tell what was going on except that is one of the strangest families I have ever heard of.
(3) If you have ever served on Jury Duty ( I have ) then I would think that you would be inclined to agree with HD_Don's expressions on this. It is not really about innocent or guilty in a court of law. Why ? Because many times there IS no way to be dead sure one way or the other.
What it is about is 'beyond reasonable doubt'. And unless the 12 jurors are proven 'beyond reasonable doubt' then they are admonished BY LAW, (and the Judge reminds them of this) to aquit the charged.
