    Before Austin can step up, we first need him to be able to stand up. #thanksmac

    Meander never actually went to trial, since they dropped the case against him after Sanders was found not guilty. The case against Sanders apparently ultimately came down to inconsistencies in the victim's testimony. “There was no other decision to be made,” [juror Mitchell] Herd said. “That was the absolute right decision to be made. We’re not happy because we know he’s not innocent; he did take advantage of a very drunk girl in a dorm room in the middle of the night. We know that morally he did something very wrong; we all agree on that. But lawfully we couldn’t convict him.” Another juror, Jeff Bagley, said “Not guilty was the right verdict. I do think there was a general consensus, or at least from quite a few jurors, that the rape did occur even if there wasn’t enough evidence. We kind of got stuck there.”

    Don't Know what more evidence they needed. The photos documenting the rape on Saunders cell phone should have equaled unsurmountable evidence. Jurors agree they are guilty, inconsistencies are not uncommon for the victim of a violent assault.
    Shame for the victim. Hopefully there won't be more in the future like with Winslow Jr.
    Personally, I hope he keeps meandering , right off the team.
