Protest from the jury
The jury publicly protested Goux's handling of the debates and the victims' testimonies, stating" We would like to express our frustration. We regret that some witnesses, who are bound to repeat themselves, are heard at length while other testimony, which we find interesting, is shortened for time reasons. We are a popular jury but I think our IQ is far from inadequate. It was an opportunity to say it today because we feel that it has gone very badly. I would like you to be sensitive to our request."[2]
