I believe that the D.A. had a weak case, he didn't look into the background of the family(the mother is being look at for welfare fraud right now, not counting the J.C. Penny's case that was a factor in the past, thank to daddy-o)
maybe the boy was molested, we don't know for sure, since the mother has upset the jury!
and the video of the boy when he was younger may had played a big part in the verdict, because they may have look at what he said on the stand, and what was on the tape?
but i did notice that the d.a. both time in the last 12 years heard from family that took money, or wanted money(which i believe this family wanted, except that they didn't need monies since it was already taken care of before the family met him?)
all cases seem to involved money, no one that didn't need money spoken up?
and yes as Bill said, he threw his life away, after the first case. he should had stop, but didn't. i will go on record saying, i think he will leave the u.s. and go where they don't care for nothing he does, just so he bring money to the country he go to
money talk, you know the rest
