38. So you don't know the facts but somehow you know the jury did what they were summoned to do

You just know that the jury did what they were summoned to do despite the fact that they failed to reach a verdict on the murder charge despite the mountain of evidence that existed against this guy, but when I present my belief that Dunn is guilty you suggest I could not possibly come to a conclusion without reading every last thing that was typed by the stenographer. I guess it is fine for you to reach conclusions despite the fact that you just admitted you don't care about the evidence, but you suggest that we can't say Dunn is guilty of murder unless we read every last stenographer's report. Fuck anyone who would try to justify what Dunn did.

Do you agree or disagree with the juror who bought the self-defense claim? geek tragedy Feb 2014 #64

Who said any juror bought the self-defense claim? DonViejo Feb 2014 #81

Same exact thing I've been saying, sked14 Feb 2014 #82

Yeah, there was a jury in the OJ trial, too. WinkyDink Feb 2014 #39

The jury refused to convict him for killing Jordan Davis. geek tragedy Feb 2014 #56

I don't think so Diamonique Feb 2014 #20

You are probably quite wrong about someone buying the self-defense thing Yo_Mama Feb 2014 #46

Since he is guilty of attempted murder and malaise Feb 2014 #70

It seems that the shooting event was divided into subparts... HereSince1628 Feb 2014 #73

I guess you could look at it that way, but... Diamonique Feb 2014 #75

Yes, I agree this is the way the resolution of charges works. HereSince1628 Feb 2014 #80

Yes the jury was given those options Diamonique Feb 2014 #74

Or, there were one or two who were convinced that it should be 1st murder sked14 Feb 2014 #76

Agreed JJChambers Feb 2014 #18

Don't move the goalpost! You said justice was not served. demwing Feb 2014 #45

No, no, nothing being hung on the murder charge indicates justification Yo_Mama Feb 2014 #49

Realistically, they would have settled for murder 2 if that were the only barrier to consensus. geek tragedy Feb 2014 #61

Exactly! Diamonique Feb 2014 #68

They failed to convict him for killing Davis. nt geek tragedy Feb 2014 #58

apparenlty, someone bought the self defense story and would not go for murder 2 either..... bettyellen Feb 2014 #88

I'd say they ought to re-try for murder 2 then... Hippo_Tron Feb 2014 #90

yeah, no matter how much you explain premeditation can only take seconds- I think people do not bettyellen Feb 2014 #91
