Earlier on this thread, someone mentioned the “CSI effect”..people today expect to see hard, visual evidence..absent it, they won’t convict..

Before CSI, it was Perry Mason, LA Law, Law & Order, etc. Because of television, circumstantial evidence is now considered bad evidence. Even when there's a truckload of corroborating evidence to go along with it.

Justice, like government, depends on an informed, intelligent citizenry. We don't have that anymore.

Well, I’m right about ONE thing..just as I predicted..the jurors do NOT want to speak publicly, and be identified..
