[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry if this has been asked, but what are the odds the jury gets to a verdict tomorrow? Is there a way to tell? [/quote]

No, no way to tell. If quicker more likely to be guilty. I don’t think NG is likely but could be a hung jury I suppose.

Has anyone ever been to one? How does it work backstage? I mean, I’m certain he’s guilty and idk how there can still be a question about that, but I’m sure they need to check boxes or something? [/quote]

I was on a murder trial once and it was so obvious the guy did it- in fact he was pleading guilty, but to self defense, not to first degree murder.  It was clear as day it was first degree murder (this was maryland so terminology I guess is different there).  It still took like 2.5 days because a few retired people wanted to discuss it ad nauseum, and one or two younger guys wanted to play devils advocate and blame it on the guys girlfriend (the one guy murdered the other because the girlfriend was sleeping with them both).  They were very anti-woman, probably MAGA types (but this was 25 years ago).  I kept being like, you guys, she isn't on trial, yeah she sucks, but having a girlfriend who cheats on you isn't "self defense" when you kill the other dude??? But the one guy kept being like "she pushed him to the edge!" and i was like "but he didnt murder HER he murdered the other guy???"  believe me there are some prejudiced people out there.  And then some bored people without jobs who just want to rehash things over and over.  [/quote]
