One of the worst examples of prosecution performance, I think they took a lot for granted. I will also give credit to the defence team, they were flawless and really eviscerated the prosecution on a couple of fronts and put the cop on trial too. Couple with racial tensions and a murderer went free. It’s hard to say the system worked as we all know it didn’t but the beyond reasonable doubt is supposed to ensure innocent people don’t get put away. In this case it worked the wrong way.
