Fair question. The whole issue of jury consultancy is of interest to me. I recall seeing interviews with the consultants for the OJ trial (after the trial ended). The concept for the show was excellent, however the execution was poor. I think the ratings will reflect that.

Yikes. I'm 40 minutes into the show as I write this. This show makes the Jeffersons look like Roots. I've never seen this Bull character before. He's good looking but not a great actor. He's so horridly over-acting that I'm embarrassed for him. BTW, Dr Phil is not a psychiatrist; he's a psychologist. The distinction…

You bring up a valid point about the power of the governor to pardon these men (Brendan, at least). Has anyone petitioned the governor?
