Can’t be good news. Don’t they usually seal these verdicts for a while if they expect problems?

How could you seal a verdict?

What kind of justice would that be for the defendant who’s name has been slimed in the worst way?

A verdict must be “published” (by the way that is the official name for the act of reading the jury’s verdict before the court) so that the community knows that justice has been served and that the defendant if innocent can have his name cleared.
