Funny, they both say the same thing... Bill Clinton was found
INNOCENT, he was ACQUITTED

Sorry you guys can't seem to see this... It is very difficult for me
to put things in laymen's terms if you want to change the rules.

Here let me give you a reference point...

McDougal not guilty on one count; mistrial declared on other two
charges

LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas (AllPolitics, April 12) -- Whitewater figure
Susan McDougal was found not guilty Monday of obstruction of justice but
the
judge declared a mistrial after jurors said they were "hopelessly
deadlocked" on the criminal contempt charges.

U.S. District Judge George Howard Jr. declared the mistrial on two
criminal contempt counts just before jurors delivered the innocent verdict
in the courtroom.

I see here it doesn't say McDougal was acquitted... No it says the
jury delivered the "innocent" verdict.

Sorry Bert, you've been beat again


Where does it say the a jury returns a verdict of innocence? Last I looked
juries returned verdicts of guilty or not-guilty.
