A justice system where we risk errors following trial by fellow citizens is still better than justice by mob/public opinion.
@destinal Whether the jury was "right" is objectively unknowable. I just trust that the jury tried its best given the law & facts presented.

@Grange95 IMO the prosecutions case was so weak they should have realized there weren't facts to back it and avoided a media circus. -
@destinal I think it's a fair point that prosecution overreached w/ 2d degree murder, which undermined the stronger manslaughter case.
