I have two replies to that-
1.
Quote:
A Cook County jury Friday acquitted R&B superstar R. Kelly of child pornography charges, marking the end of a high-profile trial rich in courtroom drama and celebrity intrigue.
Jurors put little stock in the prosecution’s star witness, a woman who claimed she participated in sex acts with Kelly and the underage girl. And because the alleged victim and her family denied she was the woman in the video, jurors’ sense of reasonable doubt held strong; likewise, the videotape of the sex acts was convincing, but didn’t conclusively prove illegal activity, jurors said.
The initial vote after the case went to the jury was 10-2 in favor of acquittal. Subsequent votes during “heated but civil” deliberations moved back and forth, but never very far. A white female juror said the jurors shared opinions, but never saw anything conclusive.
“And at some point we said there was a lack of evidence,” the woman said. “There was nothing concrete enough to say it was him or her on that tape.”
