The death of a seventeen year old minor is not a mote or beam issue. However, if you look in the Bible that you have just referred to, it says somewhere in there that "thou shall not kill!"
The procecutors were not idiots, they were public servants trying to right an injustice.
It doesn't matter how big or indistinguishable a minor is, they are still a minor. If you don't believe that, ex cop, just go out and have relations with a beautiful seventeen year old blonde and see where that gets you.
What the media did or said has no bearing on this trial what so ever. It is why they sequester jurors.
Your comments about public service announcements and verdicts and white people just reinforces my impression of you as what you are, a white bigot.
Thank God you weren't on the jury. We know exactly what you would have done in addition to trying to proposition the other five women.

To say that "God exists" is the greatest understatement ever made across space and time.
