The fact that at the 3rd trial (2 Mistrials) was moved to the locality of the crime where all of the publicity was heavy but the actual crime had been five years earlier was bad. The fact that the prosecutor said that the jury could PRESUME GUILT by Mr Jennings being in the same parking lot AND the judge staying silent is ABHORRENT! Every Perry Mason murder case, let alone other TV & movie depictions, say that unless the prosecution PROVES GUILT BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT then the jury must PRESUME INNOCENT. Shaking my head here.
Jury trials as just a scary thought - people with nothing better to do and not bright enough to avoid it, thinking that THEY have to punish SOMEONE for the crime... The defense had best work on the basis that it’s ‘guilty until proven innocent’ with those jackals.
Thanks for reading and commenting, intelligently about the information, -— unlike some on FR who are basically Drive-By commentators. :)
