He did, but sometimes confessions are coerced by the police, or manipulated out of mentally-troubled people. (Some of the recent cases where convicted people were freed because of DNA evidence involved confessions that turned out to be untrue.)

Had I been on that jury, I might have voted to convict, but I would have thought long and hard about it first.
I hear ya. That makes sense. that 12 out of 12 thing is tough
you get one ultra liberal who wouldn’t convict with a video and it’s over.
not saying that’s what happened here though
