and a Little Is Too Much  The Legal Intelligencer  May 14, 2013
As a jury consultant in the region, I received a few calls from
reporters asking for commentary about the Kermit Gosnell trial
and the fact that, after days upon days of seeing and hearing
horrible things, the jurors seemed not to react as strongly to
the evidence as they did when the trial began and graphic
evidence was first introduced. One reporter wanted to know
whether that meant the jurors weren't being impacted by the
evidence anymore and whether the graphic nature of the testimony
was, in fact, beginning to backfire on the prosecution. My
answer: "The evidence is likely still quite impactful, but it
very well may become impactful in a way it was not intended to
be."  The ALM® and LexisNexis® Content Alliance
