      The trial had a moronic jury. That’s definitely comporable.

      The only time I’ve served on a jury, there were two morons. I suspect most jurys have carefully selected morons.

        It was also after the aquital of a person who straight up murdered a black teenager (which caused riots) and a cop who was factually racist. Also the DA tried to move the trial to wildly conservative venue so they could guarantee a conviction.

        Ppl like to agrue he got off because he was rich but the political/racial climate probably had a lot more to do with it
