Comment Re:My God - Courts overturning cases (Score 1) 433
The point was the jury didn't understand the complexities of the case. In this situation it's the judge's job to turn over the conviction. What if a jury decided you were a murderer on the basis of mistaken identity. Wouldn't you want a judge to turn that over? Or would you rather spend the next few years dropping soap infront of 'Big Bubba' from West Virginia?
