As a practical matter, we all do have opinions of whether someone famous has done something wrong or not. But presumption of innocence has nothing to do with what goes on outside the courtroom. |
I don't think the presumption of innocence is dead or that it will be hard to find people who will indulge the defendants in this case. |
I think people who end up sitting on juries can do it. Lots can't; that's why they have (jury selection). |
There is always a risk someone wants to play celebrity and get 15 minutes of fame and always risk, too, there might be someone who wants to stick a stake through Ken Lay's heart. |
