Seems to me that they had already made up their mind from the beginning.

What about "in dubio pro reo" ?, seems some people don't understand this nowadays.

there was a time when you had to be proved guilty, now it seems to be the other way round, you have to prove that you're not guilty.

don't get me wrong, I am not entirely sure if he didn't do this but there is at least enough doubt that he did it.

does anyone remember the film 12 Angry Men ?

Yup, I studied it at school, was one of the few texts I actually enjoyed.

Before anyone makes comments dooming reiserfs, remember Reiser4 is developed by many more people than Hans.
