Was she a philosopher/theologian like yourself? Not everyone has the time or the education to study such things. I am sure that she tried to put herself in the man's shoes and came up with the most comforting answer that she could, after the fact. I don't see what is wrong with that. She followed the instructions and obeyed the law and carried out her responsibilities as best she could. That is all we ask of jurors. That is all we should ask. We can't all be Thomas Jefferson.
