What a hard decision. I do think it was the right one, but I don't envy the jury's job a bit in this case. So sad for all involved.

I did not watch, but I followed updates as they happened into my realm of media consumption. From what I understand, I feel that the jury made the right decision. I'm glad I didn't have to make it myself though...

JennaHatfield I was just listening to the judge thank the jurors profusely and thinking of the media ordeal they'll be walking into. I was thinking of this trial when I was called to jury service last week (didn't have to actually report this time, whew). What an enormous responsibility.
