He quickly blamed the absence of black members of the jury for the acquittal.

So it is more important to you that an innocent man is sent to jail, huh jackson?

These people don’t see the Justice system as a way to determine innocence or guilt, they see it as a means to achieve “social justice.”

“He quickly blamed the absence of black members of the jury for the acquittal.”

I’ve been called for jury duty several times and have been selected for two of which one was a criminal trial. It’s my observation that during the voir-dire process each side, attorneys for the prosecution and for the defense are allowed an equal number of scratches and picks. So, the prosecution could have seated at least three blacks had they chosen to do so.
