Most of the ‘legal commentariat’ have wondered from the beginning why this case was even pursued. It requires a jury to read the defendant’s mind, and I don’t know how you can expect that. The only way you could prove the case is to have Edwards take the stand and admit it. There was a less than zero chance of that happening, so why go forward?

The case was lost, and the prosecution should have known it, when it went beyond a week of deliberations. If the jury didn’t buy it quickly, they weren’t going to buy it after thinking about it.

This jihad against Democrats who poke their prong where it ain’t s’pozed to be has always baffled me, yes, it’s morally disgusting, but it ain’t illegal for cryin’ out loud, and trying to find a loophole to let you prosecute someone for it is just plain silly.

Hopefully someone at the Justice Department has enough sense to pull the plug on this now…
