Again, there's nothing to "reasonably doubt." The issue isn't whether the facts into evidence are true or not. They are not in dispute so there can't be any doubt, reasonable or otherwise. The only issue is whether the actions deserve a jail sentence and the jury decided no...

Just out of curiosity, to what were you "not" referring? The chewbacca defense? The "she had it cumming" joke?
