Court TV hosts & commentators keep talking about the "emotions" involved in this case & the jury "will" reach a verdict on those "emotions". Well, I guess they (as attorneys) have forgotten that a jury cannot reach a verdict based on "emotions". It's stated as such in the jury instructions.

Does anyone remember how long the verdict took in the Skakel case? The media did not think he would get convicted, but once again they were wrong. I hope they have "read the tea leaves" wrong in this case too, and DW is found not guilty.
