   The problem is you had a group of idiots as jurors. The handgun 
   expert trying to prove that Blade's gun could not fire accidently
   goofed. The gun went off in his demonstration. The whole news service
   reported he would probably be acquitted. The fact that he wasn't meant
   he had a very poor lawyer who didn't point it out. The juror
   probably changed their mind when they learned the significance of
   what they saw. The judge realized the jury didn't get the point.

All of which has nothing to do with what actually happened.  The judge responded
to a Defense motion entered before the trial began.  The expert witness had
nothing to do with setting the verdict aside.
