So true - I believe that Blake did it, but would probably have had to come to the same conclusion the jury did. Unlike O.J.(where the jury really hosed it), there was no solid evidence. As I heard Rush say some time back, "Our legal system is designed under the precept that it is better to let an occassional guilty person off, than it is to convict an innocent man."

Of course, the system is so perverted with screwy judges and a sick society, that all bets are off.

I hope you don't think that Rush coined the phrase on his own. BTW, the prosecution in the O.J. case did an absolutely horrible job. We all know O.J. wacked them, but the prosecution botched the case from the moment the first police officer showed up at the crime scene. Proof beyond a reasonable doubt -- hardly.
