Justice is done, for now. Personally, as I see it, this is just the first of many vindications to come. In the end, blood can only be cleansed by truth–and there’s plenty of cleaning up left to be done. But a sigh of relief for now. My congratulations to Scot, to his attorney Mark Eiglarsh, and to the entire team that supported him, including Kevin Bolling and Lydia Rodriguez, whom I know from afar, and so many people that I don’t. The verdict is what we all hoped for, an 11-0 win. It’s good to have some good news in a world where good news seems so rare.
You can see Kevin Bolling in the video at minute 9:28, in the light blue suit. By far the loudest guy in the room, lol.

Two headlines from The New York Times.
June 26, before the verdict: “Jury to Decide Fate of Deputy Who Did Not Confront Parkland Gunman”
June 29, after the verdict: “Jury Acquits Deputy Who Failed to Confront Parkland Gunman”
So the acquittal led the headline writers to move from “did not” to “failed”?
