Why Not Just Cut to the Chase and Elect Him Mayor?

The man who was convicted of carrying a gun but acquitted of murder in the shooting of Kate Steinle on a San Francisco Bay pier never actually possessed the weapon in a legal sense ... [More]
Yeah. Hence the "illegal possession" charge.

And he threw it in the ocean to keep it from shooting. There will be San Francisco jurors dumb/brainwashed enough to buy that.

Like I said at the time:
If the jury didn't believe his 'I picked up a gun and it went bang' story, then they had to convict him of homicide.
If they did believe it, then he didn't commit unlawful possession of a firearm.

Finding him not guilty of homicide and guilty of possession was not a logically defensible decision.
