"Brilliant Legal Insight of the Day" Dept

I never link to The Onion for reasons of kid safety, but must pass on a classic (and of course totally made-up) quote from one of their stable of persons-on-the-street. (If you're not familiar with The Onion's "What Do You Think?" department, the six pictures are always exactly the same, but the names and professions change each week.) In this case, the question of the day is, "Two jurors in the Michael Jackson molestation trial said they regret acquitting Jackson, and both now have pending book deals. What do you think?" Meil Serven, Director of Definition, gives as his opinion, "This is what happens when a sleazy loonball is tried by a jury of his peers."

(I also liked the opinion of Daniel Hopkins, Stenographer: "Shouldn't they have known that Jackson was guilty before the trial began?")
