The court of public opinion runs on just that, the court of law functions with the facts as much as possible, the Ghomeshi case made that evident, in the court of public opinion it was believed that Ghomeshi was guilty but in court, the actions of the alleged victims after the alleged assaults were reasons for reasonable doubt so the verdict had to be not guilty. Had I been on the jury in such a case, I would have voted for an acquittal because the facts seemed to indicate that.
