Was it not all on tv
So,you could be as informed as the jury
If you GAF
if the entire telecast was on tv.
if someone sat down and watched the whole trial
if that person did not have a pre formed opinion and was able to evaluate all evidence at hand in a rational manner rather than ignore facts that did suit their prejudice.
if that person had an understanding of the mechanisms of law, in particular presumption of innocence and beyond reasonable doubt, two of the cornerstones of a so called civilised legal system,
then yes perhaps they could make a decision as informed as the
judge's ( i dont believe that this was a trial by jury)
but then again, if your aunty had balls......
