When those women get home and are able to educate themselves on all the things that weren't allowed in the trial, I hope they feel as physically sick as I do now.

(113,342 posts)But there's a lot that we "know" that wasn't introduced as evidence.
Stuff about GZ's family, stuff that he might have said, all kinds of stuff.
Most of it hearsay, poorly corroborated, and mostly unrelated to what happened as far as the law is concerned. Some of it actually contradicts what was presented--no grass stain on TM's pants versus the grass stains the jury saw, for example. A real eye-opener, that. Who should they believe, people on the Internet or their own eyes looking at the actual pants? People on the Internet, of course!
So, no. The jurors will go home and in spite of having done their duty presumably with a bit of conscientiousness, they'll sleep fitfully as they try to get the media people off their property, change their phone #s, and deal with the threats and intimidation that will probably be winging their way any minute now.
