Quote from: Josephus on May 16, 2025, 08:51:42 PMInterested to hear BB's thoughts on the trial

I got nothing man.  I haven't been present, I don't feel qualified based on news reports (in particular with publication bans in place).

Here you go, people with knowledge of the case weigh in. In summary,

1) Dismissing the jury was required to ensure a fair trial for the accused

2) the decision to convert the trial to judge alone was made because it would be difficult to draw a new jury that did not already have knowledge of the evidence in the case. And, perhaps more importantly the complainant would have to testify again.

The article is an interesting read. It also explains why the first jury was dismissed in a mistrial.

It's alright. I'll always have 2018.
Most Leafs and Habs fans weren't even born the last time their team win the cup, so there's that.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

It's on Hellebucyk. Vezina winner and Hart trophy nominee needs to play like the goalie that he is. I'm more than happy with the last shut out. Just continue. The rest of the team will deliver.

Dallas is a fine team and the Team Finland component is scary af. I'm pretty nervous.

Yeah the stars assembled a nice Finland group there.  Seems like teams like to get clusters of the same nationality to help with team culture / chemistry.
