I wish the article made clear just how the jury misunderstood the law. I personally have no idea what it was about the law they misunderstood.
The other crime that will be committed is this animal will be deported after release,sneak back in and face no real penalty for returning. Its a revolving door. We need to start with a 5 year sentence followed by 10 years for someone thrown out that sneaks back in. Furthermore,since the ‘country’ of Mexico refuses to stop their citizens from sneaking they should be liable for the costs of such imprisonment. Since they will not pay our next step should be to stop all legal immigration as well as putting any citizenship applications hold. No renewal of green cards either. There needs be consequences for those sneaking back in.

Youre right. I went to the link, and all it says is the foreman felt bad, but the state didnt prove its case. Without any other statements provided by the author, it is unfair to blame the jury. From what the foreman said, it sounds like the prosecutor is the one who let the family down. But we dont know for certain.

They thought it did not apply to Latinos, therefore he could not be guilty. Don't need no stinking license to get drunk and mow yards. Poor people, like the pos that kill the doctor and his son last year.

According to the family, the jury didn't know that "ignorance of the law" is no defense.
