Forgive me if I'm wrong but I thought the outcome of this case was determined from the Grand Jury chart to which it all began.
It is not that easy, imo. Things are constantly changing. It is an everchanging universe. So the Grand Jury chart is very very important as it is the first 'event' chart leading up to the trial. But things proceed and there are twists and turns. And we are always faced with the free will of the humanoids involved. It is really complicated and astrologers have conferences in which they debate this exact subject/question endlessly, for years, and it is never fully resolved. imoo
[Horary vs. Humanistic Astrology, fatalism vs free will, if you want to delve deeper into the ongoing debate.]

Ancient astrologers believed every answer was there, in exact fashion in the seed chart or natal or horary chart. As society progressed, individuals wanted to break free from that fatalistic view of things. We now believe that it is wrong to chain individuals to class distinctions and we feel anyone can attain anything they aspire to, no matter what their family/financial/religious status was at birth. We also believe that people can overcome their flaws and rise above them. So 'humanistic' astrologers like Dane Rudyhar wanted to teach that charts are not absolute or predetermined scripts. If we hold to that philosophy, then we cannot accept that one chart, at the very beginning of a 4 year event, could hold ALL of the answers. If so, then why would the individuals strive to do better, be better and make positive changes? Sorry for the rambling but I have spent 40 years trying to answer and understand that question, behind your post. lol
