So, so, so very relieved to see this outcome, though of course horrified they were ever charged in first place.

Wait, so how long was the trial, and how much did it cost? At the beginning could the defending lawyer not have stood up and moved to have it thrown out right then? "Your honor, this is bullshit " (but in fancy legal talk)
-
they tried, repeatedly. pay attention. there are still well over 150 defendants to go.

Sounds like vindictive prosecution.

It's even worse than vindictive prosecution. They were--and still are if they don't drop the remaining cases--attempting to set a precedent which would basically outlaw street protests.

You think he, after noting discussion among all of the jury, made up "it ultimately at no point was...did it seem even possible that a guilty verdict would come down?"

Waste of tax payer's money. Vendetta failed. Ridiculous. I hope defendants sue and at least get court fees and legal fees covered. Ridiculous.

And yet charges were laid against the defendants (following their arrest & incarceration), the judge refused to dismiss them & imposed bail & bond conditions, and prosecutors zealously pursued conviction/decades of imprisonment. Victory for the government.

WHAT A TERRIBLE WASTE OF RESOURCES! DC could have spent that money TREATING DRUG ADDICTION or FUNDING PUBLIC SCHOOLS but instead they've got INCOMPETENT PROSECUTORS!!!
