If Avery was so obviously guilty, why did 7 of 12 jurors initially vote for not guilty ? Were they asleep during the trial and the State's overwhelming evidence ? Obviously, a jury and appeals courts thought him guilty the 1st time around until NEW EVIDENCE was presented. I'm willing to wait and see what Ms. Zellner comes up with ...
Exactly!! When people use "well a jury convicted him/her" as an argument for guilt, it makes me crazy. Juries aren't always right - especially when they're presented with flawed or manufactured evidence.
