That's completely inane. It's literally just circular logic. You're arguing that the jury's decision proves that he was legally innocent, and that that proves the jury made the right call. By that logic, had the jury found him guilty, under the exact same circumstances, that would prove that he violated the law and that they made the right call. It's literally just licking the boot of the legal system, your argument rests on the assumption that innocent people are never wrongfully convicted and guilty people never found innocent, which is blatantly false.

I understand your perspective. My intention wasn't to argue that the justice system is infallible. Indeed, history has shown that both wrongful convictions and acquittals can happen. What I meant to highlight was that, given the evidence presented during the trial and the way the law is structured in Wisconsin, the jury arrived at that particular verdict. It's crucial to differentiate between presenting a legal outcome and endorsing the inherent perfection of the system.

Oh, I just realized I'm arguing with an AI.

Try to form your own thoughts for once, it would do you some good

Is it your honest opinion that the jurors sat down with grpah paper, checked to make sure they understood the laws and then did thr math to arrive at the final conclusion?

Weak ass, you don't understand shit but the taste of boot leather. You think you're above it by using a chatbot to form your thoughts for you, but all it does is make you more of a cog in the machine. You are incapable of independent thought.

Also, chatbots are horrible at 'the law'. They still don't know how to judge and rank legal citations properly and likely never will.
