I think you underestimate the legal system - granted I can see why. Not everyone is as stupid as an "L.A. O.J. juror"

The OJ case was unique in that the public was able to see and understand much more than the members of the jury. While I remain sure that he did the acts of which he was accused, we saw a top-flight defense team take on the best that the LA District Attorney had to offer. IMHO, the jury was right - on the basis of evidence presented in court, OJ could not be found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
KSM and the others will have unlimited funds to buy the services of the best defense attorneys in the United States - the team will be even stronger than the one in the OJ case. The prosecutors will be good, but good at civil servant wages, not $1,000 per hour and up.criminal attorneys. With the many procedural holes in the government case, I will not be surprised when a verdict of 'not guilty' is reached. I certainly hope I am wrong, but believe this will be the outcome.
