[QUOTE="Allen, post: 235032, member: 389"] After a criminal assault trial that I served as the jury foreman (they actually use a different term, but I don't remember it offhand) both the prosecuting attorney and defense attorney caught up to me outside the courtroom and they took turns asking me questions about what we thought was important and how they presented their cases. It was really a no-brainer for us on the jury, the prosecutor didn't really have squat for evidence (no witness as the victims couldn't even ID their attacker) but the defense attorney stupidly put his client on the stand and he actually confessed to assaulting the two victims. So it was easy to find the guy guilty of the assault charge. What we couldn't find him guilty of though was the more serious charge of using a weapon. I suspect he did, but without proof there were no jurors leaning towards it. In the end, the dude was a POS who got at least some time out of his misadventures. [/QUOTE]
