What were your thoughts on the judgement when the jury came back in? Did their body language give anything away?

That's about what I thought would happen. Harry was guilty of killing Church and he was negligent for the way he did it....so the jury could not give a not guilty verdict... but they did very well with the payout. Hope she enjoys her $2.00:)

I was sure they'd find for the plaintiff - Chandler had done too devastating a job on Bosch. But I did have a sneaking suspicion they might only award the one dollar. That wiped the smile off her face, 👏.

the fact that none of the jurors would look at Harry had me concerned that the verdict might be bigger than the $1/$1.

I was glad the way things turned out.

It was the right verdict...but i was starting to sweat when none of the jurors looked his way.

I thought it would have been interesting if someone had interviewed some of the jurors. I'd like to know how they felt and how hard it was to come to that verdict...just out of curiosity.

I was pretty sure they were going to find for the plaintiff. Yes, they wouldn't even really look Bosch in the eye. Because of this, I thought they they were going to give her big $$$. So I was shocked about the $1. At least the city doesn't have to pay Chandler's bill. Was it horrible of me to type that?

>8 jodiesohl: No it wasn't. I was thinking of killing her myself:)
