they were acquitted of all charges after the judge dismissed the one juror that wanted to convict and got somebody else to sign on
Fuck these goddamn pieces of shit, their garbage ideas, their bullshit privilege, their hateful rhetoric, their kid-glove treatment, and every single LEO, judiciary member, and juror involved in this disgraceful decision. There's a hot little corner in hell that has your name on it, you scum.

after the judge dismissed the one juror that wanted to convict and got somebody else to sign on
the "somebody else" was an alternate juror both the defense and prosecution had agreed upon, who had sat in on the trial and heard all the testimony. the dismissed juror had made the extremely stupid remark that he was "very biased" as the jury opened its deliberations, causing another juror to send a written enquiry to the judge regarding the stupid juror's impartiality. in order to avoid an appeal based on the stupid juror's remark, she seated the alternate juror.
this wasn't some 'fix'. it was a bunch of jurors who decided in favor of the defendants. why they did, god alone knows.

don't really see the parallel between a lone homophobic wingnut and an armed insurrection of racists, unless you're saying that this country has made no progress whatsoever since the 70's which I am starting to believe.

I do like the "I refute it thus" ending to these things, but they still believe there's some kind of hidden law apart from what actually happens. It's a curious confusion, and it must emerge from more primitive misunderstandings, I think. And Americans; I blame Americans (and the Magna Carta).

Instead, “metaphysical concepts” were introduced to suggest the money “never actually existed”, although how the couple bought a property with “non-existent” funds was not explained.
don't tell the whole story do they, what he means is "my metaphysical concepts have the power of arrest and yours do not"
