Amazing Grace


If there is any silver lining to the Jackson case,
it is that TV viewers around the world had an
opportunity to see Nancy Grace's head almost
explode.

I was very stunned to hear a juror refuse to
state what he thought Jackson does in bed with
all of his line of little boys, say he didn't want
to stick his neck out by telling what he believed…
I mean, isn't that the point of the justice system,
to do what you believe in, what you think is
right, for Pete's sake?

No, Nancy. The point of the justice system is
to ignore what you believe in, examine the
evidence, and follow the rule of law.

What you think is right has nothing to do with it.

Good grief! This lady is actually a lawyer?
