Hi Alex,
Thanks for the update. Yeah, I certainly can understand the emotions of
the people in England who were supporting Woodward. Heck, I can even
understand the emotions of the people who were supporting Simpson. And
those who expressed their emotions when he was found liable in the civil
trial.
Understanding and agreeing are two different things, however. But I
never had a big problem with any of that. IMO, the more interesting
issues are whether the legal process worked and a correct verdict and
sentence was given.
