This is simply insane...how can you have one charge that requires intent to do grave bodily harm/death and another charge that requires the opposite, accidental bodily injury/death due to gross negligence? The charges themselves show that the state demonstrates reasonable doubt with regard to intent. How can you possibly defend yourself when you need to prove BOTH intent and non-intent?
Jury nullification possible?
They want a conviction on SOMETHING, that’s obvious. They know they didn’t have enough for the murder charge.
What REALLY REALLY ought to concern everyone in America is that after the case has been sent to the jury, a prosecutor and judge can decide to add new charges. How is this even possible? I am not surprised but astounded at the same time they’re getting away with us.
What recourse is there when they judge rules this way?
