This is not a innocent versus guilty thing, this is two sides trying to win an argument. The BEST side wins. Ask OJ

True, but i mean, what can the jury really do? If they're convinced the person is guilty, the only verdict they can return is guilty. Obviously, that's not perfect, which is abundantly clear in this case. For that same reason, we can only appreciate advances made in DNA technology, and hope for further advances.
