I agree with most on this thread. The acquittal was an abomination. It seems that common sense and logic were ellusive concepts to these jurors. Did not one of them look at the big picture?......connect the dots?
I have a question. If, as the defense offered, that poor baby died of an accidental drowning, why was her body staged to look like a homicide? Even a cover-up doesn’t make sense for that.
Jury selection in this case was a crucial factor. I am nearly 70 years old and have been summoned about eight times for jury duty......not once selected. A very dear friend is an attorney. I asked him about this. He said that Christian, conservative, well-educated, white women were usually the first to be exempted. I found his response terribly sad.
Many thanks to you and others for these threads. You have done a fantastic job.
That would explain why my mother, who fits all five of those descriptions, gets thrown out of the box the moment she sits down whenever she has jury duty.
