Adam Carolla Brilliantly Identifies Media Bias In Facebook Suicide Story Remember the story about the college kid who killed himself because his roommate outed him on Facebook? Well, now that all the facts have come out, it turns out that isn't what happened. That doesn't change the fact that the Media polluted the jury pool and now this guy is facing 10 years in prison for posting a status on Facebook. Sorry folks with slow connections, but there is no text on that link, it's just a video. |

Sorry folks with slow connections, but there is no text on that link, it's just a video. well, I Wasnt in the jury room so I Cant testify as to WHY the jury came back with the verdict they did. IF it was based upon media, they didnt follow juror instructions. IT could also have been based upon the facts they were presented,,,after all,,,what was the actual enditement? |

I dont agree with those particular laws,(especially in a roommate situation) but they are on the books and the case did fit the requirements in the jury's opinion, apparently

The jurors said that they didn't let the fact that the roommate killed himself enter their minds.
 As Adam Corolla said "If the gay roommate were b***s-deep in some guy he met online right now, this kid would be walking free". It's hard to argue with that logic.

only if the gay rommmate chose not to press the above charges if he had pressed the charges though, we would be right back where we are with jurors deciding if the facts fit the legal definition of the charge,,, |
