Prosecutors always have this same look with a 'not guilty' verdict no matter who is on trial. 
I am a legal Assistant, my ex husband is a Defense Attorney. I recognize their expressions.

It seems there are a lot of controversial not guilty verdicts lately.  This photo is a good representation of what some of the fallout is like

I like how the focus is on the mans face, not in womans who is up front. Makes the photo more unique in my oppinion

I think your quite smart, perhaps your so smart that you manage to do that even without consciously thinking so

Thanks, Candi!
The other dimension is that it was a classic example of a "racially-charged" environment.  The victim in this case was black, and the man on trial was white.  There were news cameras around the courthouse for the duration of the trial. . .

Ooh wow. I'm sure the media loved that case. How long did the trial last? Was this fairly recent?

I think it was a couple of weeks.  No, it was several years ago.  I think I should add that to the photo description. . .
