    So he’s effectively been found innocent. If he was a normal person he might be stuck in jail until the trial resumes but since he’s rich this is functionally the same as being found innocent.

      Oh he’s guilty as sin. The problem is that the entire “free world” is actually just corporatocracies ruled by the top < 0.1% of wealthy individuals, their corporations, and lobby groups — each masquerading as “democracies” but 90-99% of their policy, legislation, and regulation is auctioned off to the highest bidder(s).
