"feel pretty silly now"

Why would anyone feel silly because of information that was NOT available at the time of their decision making?

I don't that agree yet that DW "confessed", but if he did it doesn't bother me. My argument was with inadequate evidence during the trial to convince me of his guilt.

Maybe I just have a higher standard of "proof beyond a reasonable doubt" than most people.

There was enough information out there without this to come to the same conclusion as the jury did...

Well as a juror you follow the judges instructions as to what constitutes reasonable doubt because if you don't you fail to do what you are sworn to do as a juror.

Ever think that you are the one who is "unreasonable?"
