The prosecutor may have tap danced around that fact, but when you're dealing with a jury sometimes you have to do the verbal equivalent of spelling something out in neon letters 10 feet high. <br /><br />My personal take on the verdict is that the jury found Trayvon guilty; most of the proceedings reminded me of a rape trial -- attack the victim and persuade the jury the defendant did the victim a favor.
