I'd argue that my comments showed more of an open mind and consideration to trying to decipher the facts around what happened that night, and that your reaction indicates you've made up your mind on guilt already.

Your original quote said that if you were a juror, you’d have a hard time putting forth a guilty verdict right now, when the only evidence you have to go on are a statement of facts and the testimony of the victim, or in other words, evidence that what they are being tried for did in fact happen with no evidence presented to the contrary… and you’re saying you’d struggle with “guilty.”
You can argue whatever you want, but in no world is saying you’d struggle with a guilty plea when there is no evidence of anything but guilty to this point open minded or deciphering the facts (extra odd considering you’re jumping to conclusions and making stuff up).
