    No, he’s accused of killing someone.

    Accused with evidence that has a contradictory history over the course of the manhunt.

    But he’s not a criminal until he’s convicted by a jury of his peers.

      There’s no way you think it’s possible for him to come out of this right? The dude is either going to jail for life or getting the chair

        You know how a trial works, right?

        He still has to stand trial and be convicted by a trial of his peers.

        Even if the evidence is overwhelming, the jury still has to issue a verdict.

        It would hardly be the first time there’s a hung jury or even a nullified jury.

        You need to learn how the justice system actually works, instead of watching law and order.
