But, yes, twist to fit your own agenda.

"The jurors I reached all said that they sentenced Rhines to death primarily because of the nature of the murder."



can we now have your reaction?

My reaction to what?

The point of the discussion was whether a man deserved a harsher punishment due to his sexuality.

This got twisted into people suggesting a murderer didn't deserve a harsh sentence for murder.

That's misrepresenting what was being talked about and what my post was directed at.

I don't recall stating I knew how and why the jury came to the decision they did.

Well done DI Kirk.

It did seem quite unbelievable that a whole jury would come to the decision of the death penalty ‘because he’s gay’.
You’re maybe likely to get one maybe two homophobics on a jury but not the whole jury.
Atleast somebody would speak out.

The NY Times should be ashamed of themselves.They’ve made their agenda pretty transparent.

Not to mention some of those on here. Commonsense flies out the window when there is an agenda on the table.

So true !
My thoughts as well

And even if the jury were predjudiced AF ! it would of been investigated for a fair outcome.

And usually juries are supposed to be a mixture of different people both men & women & diverse .
