When this case was at trial, was it even all that controversial? The charge would have been reduced either before the trial or during it. I hadn't heard of it. Prosecutors reduce charges for a variety of reasons. that it was in response to public outcry is mere speculation on your part.

Ah.. but you can tell me that the public defender did a piss poor job? I'm having a hard time reconciling that statement with the above. Apparently, the P.D. did a bad job, but you don't know why. Is that accurate?
