“But, frankly, I just think the jury was scared. They really had no choice. If I were a cop, I’d never engage a black person. Those days are gone - until after the collapse.”
Guilty or innocent. Whether the jury would have found him guilty anyway if they had been isolated from the rest of the universe, there’s no way that jury wasn’t tampered with considering the mad dogs threating any verdict they didn’t like with violence. And those same thugs were just aching to dox every juror and put them in the crosshairs of the murder mob.
Yep. I put myself in the mind of the accused during the trial, and the individual jury members during deliberation. It would take a rare and courageous patriot to find not guilty for that jury in that trial.
The best I was hoping for was a single brave juror to make it a hung jury. But nope. Not one.
It will be won on appeal, almost certainly. Assuming this country is even here when it happens. And I think that is WORSE than a 50/50 proposition.
