    Well, they were acquitted by the jury so I would say they are innocent. At least they were brought to trial unlike the illegal aliens who run for Mexico after committing violent crimes.

    It is not always the case of a jury being either all white or all black or hispanic. Too often, it is a matter of competence in the office of the prosecuting attorney.

    Many times the jury will get it all wrong as was seen in other publicized cases. This is not the fault of the Jury system, but, of the lack of ability by the District Attorney’s Office to get a conviction.

    Like the first Rodney King verdict, surely this will be followed up by the US Attorney with federal charges.

    And then these two immature adults will beg to be found guilty for the previously acquitted state charges.

    Only then will they learn; there is no federal parole for violent crimes.

    Good looking kids, I am sure I have locked up someone needing a new punk girlfriend, no matter where they go.
