While everyone has a right to their opinion, no one knows more about this case than the judge and the lawyers involved. No one knows how the verdict was reached, what the reasons for coming to that conclusion were nor how the jury was advised. Until we do, it's strange to me, for people to be suggesting other verdicts that may have been better, without being in charge of all the facts. I'm sure the verdict wasn't reached lightly, bearing in mind the explosive nature of this case. Also, drawing comparisons with the Lee Rigby case is unhelpful as the two cases were completely different.
