Justice in the Trooper Higbee Trial
NJ State Trooper Robert Higbee was acquitted this afternoon. His attorney Bill Subin triumphed over a system gone a bit awry. The community was understandably anguished by the deaths of two lovely young women, but a conviction would have had implications for law enforcement throughout New Jersey, and possibly throughout the nation as well.

It must have been an agonizing decision for the jury. But they did a their duty.
