The "Jury" made it clear why they convicted him. Every statement out of their collective mouths reflected on his lack of remorse and his stoney faced appearence. Well; if you didn't do it; you wouldn't be remorsefull... would you? The circumstantial evidence looked like he could be quilty, but since when do we kill someone based on circumstantial evidence? They(the jury) all looked way too smug and self-righteous at the sentencing, talking about going out to Dean's for drinks on the air. Laughing with the family of Lacy; they just condemned a man to death, what a glorious time to celebrate, break out the hats and noisemakers; we are heroes. Since then they freed Robert Blake; who very clearly killed his wife; Archie Bunker said it twenty years ago;"California; the land of fruits and nuts."
