Lightbulb Consider case afresh, Pryce retrial jury told

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-21575600

Quote:
The jury at the retrial of ex-cabinet minister Chris Huhne's former wife Vicky Pryce has been told by the judge to listen to the case "afresh".

The new jury must base its decision on evidence heard in court, he said.

He told the jurors their predecessor's failure to reach a verdict was "irrelevant".

He said it was their task to "pool their common sense and experience of life" to reach a true verdict according to the evidence.
How the previous jury failed to understand that simple direction is beyond me .....
