Actually, Suellen, a lot of people here care, including yours truly.
I have met the guy a few times and have some strong opinions about it that I will keep to myself. (for NOW!)

So I, at least, am on pins and needles.


(Love your av, by the way!)

Oh Sueleen we should talk- I am friends with one of the "figures" in this trial and have loads of inside dirt. Presonally, I think he's guilty as sin!

how **** is he not guilty? OMG Jurors in celebrity trials are RETARDED.

Astounding. Apprently the jury bought into the idea that the tape was faked. I wonder how long before another tape is found? And another...and another...

And I'm sure there will be no shortage of parents who allow their underage daughters to be alone with him.

The fact that one of the women in the tape tried to extort $$ from him over a tell-all book deal couldn't have helped the prosecutors.

"Reasonable Doubt". Defense did their job.

Will we get a chance to see the jurors? Now that the case is over, I am sure they will be interviewed.

I remember jurors on the OJ case and the Michael Jackson case as being totally ignorant towards the law when being questioned. Of course, that was California and this is Illinois.

I thought they had a ton of evidence showing his guilt. Maybe someone paid off the jury.

How long before he strikes again?

But the fact that he committed statutory rape and pissed a girl should have still counted in the face of being extorted.

Both he and the girl in the tape denied it was them in the video. Also, supposedly, Kelly has a mole on his back that wasn't there or there was a mole there that he doesn't have or something like that.

The prosecution's star witness was the girl who claimed to have a three-way with him and the girl but was later found out to have tried to extort money from him.

clearly if you're a black celebrity you should have no fear of being convicted of any crime in this country.
