You can't put the man in jail even though in our hearts we felt he was guilty. But we had to grab our hearts and put it aside and look at the evidence."


There's a reason that legal verdicts are not based on feelings. You see, the prosecution has this little thing called "burden of proof". And the reason that the prosecution has the burden of proof is to avoid people getting convicted because some jurors, "in our heart felts that he was guilty".

Evidence is something that the prosecution never had. All they ever had was feelings. Which, though I understand feelings are the foundation of liberals everywhere, they are a horrible way to run a justice system.
