Kate Steinle's Killer Found Not Guilty

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

So, no one should be upset when a loved one dies in a car crash or a cave in or an amusement park ride failure? Or an accident with a firearm? What kind of idiotic position is that?

"Look at it like this: Since the jurors thought that it was just an accident they should never get upset when something similar happens to someone they care about."

The jurors thought that the incident was an accident so they ignored the survivors' anguish about losing their loved one to the actions of an illegal alien.  Therefore, if something similar happens to the jurors they have no reason to get upset.

I really hope this is sarcasm. If not....

What the hell is wrong with you?

Learn to read and comprehend what you're reading.

Much like Joods, I comprehended what you wrote.  Are you at all aware that delivering a verdict of 'not guilty' has fuck all to do with the survivors' anguish?

Try to put yourself in a juror's position.  The defense presents a case that - under the law and the magistrate's instructions - you find compelling enough to vote 'not guilty'.  On your way to the jury room, you catch sight of this poor woman's family.  They're distraught, consumed with grief, even in anguish over her death.  In fact, they look SO grief stricken, that you decide to  change your vote to 'guilty' in the hope that they'll feel better.

Is that what you think the juror's in this case should have done?  If not, then you should retract your prior statements about this.  If so, then you have no respect for justice and the rule of law.
