It's possible he was getting some citizen feedback on that one. There were people who were STILL completely convinced of Gerald Amirault's guilt who wanted to put him UNDER the jail, not let him out.
Everybody settled, the Insurance Companys paid off the bogus claims.
A vindication of the Amiraults might have lead to court troubles that were not in the best interest of the 99 out out of a 100 families.
The Courts, the lawyers, the families of the little children, and the politicaly savvy scumbag (possibly Mitt, but likely his handlers) operatives all converged in a place where the Amiraults got the short end.
It was a disgrace all around, and the real victims......
They got screwed, the alleged victims made a bundle, and the lawyers....still practice Law. Practice only because, they'll never get it Right.
It is a disgrace what happened to that family.
