Its not strange at all that the jury decision was split, a lot of people simply don't see abuse as abuse. Again look at the Johnny Depp case. He (more or less) won the civil case (by jury) and had a load of the public behind him too, when there are multiple videos and extensive evidence of him being an abusive drunk. It's not surprising at all what people will excuse.
