Do you give all convicted felons the same benifit of the doubt or just athlete celebs?

I think it may have "occured" to his defense lawyer that "that trifling [censored] set him up" but apparently 12 jurrors who heard this argument in its entirety did not buy it..Sure, OCCASIONALLY the jury convicts the wrong person but brother in law aside, its not too common. Nothing Tyson has said or done since has really suggested he is the kind of guy that would not have raped anyone.

Hey, the guy is an impressive athlete and he did his time but face it..he is a rapist (99% certainty). ANY other country (except France) he would have been executed, here he still gets to be a celeb....think about that.
