Part of me feels like such discussion (especially for profit) of what goes on in a Jury room should be illegal, but there are obviously first amendment concerns.

What assholes.

Because of the whole "beyond a reasonable doubt" requirement in a criminal trial, its quite possible for a juror to believe somebody is guilty and still vote for aquittal due to the evidence presented in the courtroom to not support it. I suspect Jacko would lose bigtime in a civil suit.

I'll give the jurors the benefit of the doubt for now, but I agree that tha's pretty fucking weak to profit off the thing with a book, movie, whatever.

i dunno, i suspect the OJ jurors' accounts would be a lot more interesting.

[llarian.livejournal.com]

Yeah, absolutely.

i'd probably do it. why not profit after being drug through all that crap. if millions of americans want to know "the truth", why not give them what they want? i mean its not like you are disrespecting the families or helping MJ get away with it by telling how guilty he really was.

Yeah, that's not a bad point.
