Let me put it this way, their hero MJ is a dem and anyone who could find him not guilty couldn't possibly be a Republican. That whole group looked like a bunch of dims to me.
Not true at all. The problem was the prosecution overcharged in this case and lost credibility with the jury. By including the kidnapping and conspiracy charges which were weak, they opened the door for not guilty on all the charges. An effective prosecution keeps it simple and only uses its best evidence and only makes charges it can prove.
