The jury system, the so called golden thread running through the rich tapestry of our legal system is, intrinsically, a system which is supposed to reflect the attitudes of the average 'man* in the street'. It attempts to do this by calling upon a cross section of our society to make a decisions. Like a barometer, if you like, for community attitudes.
If that's the case then it clearly reflects a society which holds law enforcement officers in contempt!
