Likelihood. I did not perceive it to be likely. I did not perceive it to be more than a remote and hypothetical possibility. I do acknowledge that they did not, in all instances, follow all established protocols, and that such left room for hypotheticals. I just happen to believe that the hay which was made in the case was not because of great defense lawyering, or actual conspiracy by the cops, but by incredibly bad Prosecution . Still, I understand the case was also a litmus test for persons attitudes and perceptions, mine included, and mine no doubt include preconceptions and biases, I would be a fool to think anything else. I know I have no pipeline to the truth. In my experience, however, folks always think they are reasonable no matter how ####house rat crazy and stupid they may be. Jurors and defense attorneys as well, to an extent, think any wild hypothetical, raised not on evidence, but on open possibility must be absolutely refuted or there is a reasonable doubt. I disagree, a mere whiff of a scintilla of a speculative hypothetical raised on hope rather than evidence is not reason or reasonable. (Now when I worked the other side of the fence I might have phrased this differently and might have taken a different stance)
