Comments on: 'Never Been on the Internet?' Oh My God, You've Got to Be Kidding. http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/20071010/riaa-juror/ by John Paczkowski Wed, 25 Nov 2009 05:19:57 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Geoff Davis http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/20071010/riaa-juror/comment-page-1/#comment-626 Geoff Davis Wed, 10 Oct 2007 17:05:13 +0000 http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/20071010/riaa-juror/#comment-626 While I can see why they would be insulted by the retardedness of her defense, that's no reason to crank up the penalty as high as it will go. The fact that this juror claims to have never been on the internet before makes the penalty seem all the more ludicrous. That said, this lady's defense was an absolute joke. How she even got to trial is beyond me, and why people were jumping behind her to defend her is just as baffling. You'd think it would be a smarter idea to get behind someone who actually might have a case. Instead, we get this legal precedent set in the RIAA's favor.
