I think that the real reason that the jury is not allowed to read the transcripts is that literacy is not a requirement to be on a jury.

LOL. I'm assuming that you meant your comment to be humorous. If not, it's a very sad thing. Weren't they supposed to be literate as voters had to be years ago?

I'm not being humerous. Haven't you ever been called for juty duty. There is no literacy test.

A guilty man walked free today....free to harm again, and society died another little death.

But the bloodlust of the crowd was temporarily sated for one more day....and they think justice was done.

But another little child will be killed, maybe by the killer that was set free, and what will YOU do when the crowd comes to YOUR door with their accusing stares?
