To: Recovering Ex-hippie

“An acquittal is a verdict of not guilty from the jury or judge that decided the case. It is a similar end to a trial that terminates the proceeding with prejudice without a verdict of guilty being entered against the accused.”

“Not guilty” is the same as “acquittal.”

Let us know when you’ve recovered, ex-hippie. LOL

To: Do Not Make Fun Of His Ears

Maybe you should read the whole article....

“Despite the protection afforded the accused after being acquitted from being tried in a criminal court, the accused can still be tried in a civil court”

You can recover from being a hippie and become a conservative, but its really hard to recover from being stupid.
