One juror could mess things up (if they don't plea to save the humiliation of a trial) but that just means another trial. Who cares? Let 'em go through the system like that if they want. It's not like you're going to get jury nullification.
Seriously, you guys are sounding a little crazy.
You're missing the point. They want re-trials and hung jury's. It's about delaying the inevitable or getting off on technicalities. There's also multiple instances of the crown giving up on retrials due to costs.
When it gets to court it isn't about getting re-elected or who likes you. It's about staying out of jail.
I would imagine the police and crown will have an iron clad case on him. Technicalities, hung jury's and delays are his only way out - outside of a plea, but I don't think they'll ever do that.
