you make a good point and i see the validity of this argument BUT I think that people might not even realize how much they are influanced. And I am not saying it was unfair in a way that they planted evidence or proceeded without respecting the law, but that the highly publicized details got to their heads and shaped or at least Helped shape their opinion before they were even in the court room. so then when the jurors are asked if they Believe something how likely are you to believe a testimony if u alrradu believe the accused did it (is a major creep), walking into the court room? and as defense u can only take out so many jurors and u usually want to take out the extreme ones/crazies first. so by the time u want to take out the biased ones u have no more taking out left.. This result is seen as justice for those women that had endured suffering at the hands of this creep. But is it really justice, because I don't believe this really exists, not in a case like this that has been highly publicized? It has 'ultimately' been a lynch mob trial. Life isn't fair though and what is going down is going to down.
Many would have also been paid out silence money as has been often commented on. That is like accepting a bribe then keeping it, investing or spending it and then reneging on the agreement to keep silent. Will this bribe money be returned? This is blood money in a sense. that’s the thing. Finding actual justice (balance of right and wrong) in this case or actually almost MeToo cases that were heavily medialized is a feat that I can’t imagine could even reach the goal of actual justice. What he did could have been 100x worse or less bad than what he will end up getting. Who knows. I feel there was more “justice” in the Cosby trial for example. But Harvey’s case is so tainted.
