Possibly. The jury heard all of the facts and rendered a verdict.
One of the blogs talked with two jury members who decided to convict based on reasons such as not liking Maye's defense attourney.
All the facts that were admitted by the judge, anyway. If the judge made errors hopefully the appeals court will correct them.
And cops have NEVER manipulated facts to fit their scenario that they are pure as the driven snow! Get real, the jury was going by what the same cops who busted in on this guy told them. The cops stand by their own, right or wrong, and if this story is the way it was written, they were wrong in this case.
I have been victim of cops serving a warrent at the wrong house, my house. They were looking for someone I had never heard of and I didn't have time to get my gun(which I now keep on my person at all times)and was roughed up and thrown against the wall(complaints later were ignored by the officer's superiors)and shouted down when I tried to ask what was going on. They searched my house without a warrent, because the one they had was for a house not even close to mine, subjected me to humiliation and were never brought to account for it. Don't tell me that cops are all wonderful, law abiding citizens. The police forces of this country are full of a**holes who love the power and misuse it constantly.
