around outside waiting for her, is EXACTLY what being trafficked looks like. And I really don’t have a better explanation for why Scott Love was so patient while she was in there for two hours. Probably tampered video, right? If the jury was pre-programmed with the alternate idea that Mandi was a hooker rather than a robber, they would have easily believed it was an angry pimp not a jealous boyfriend. If the prosecution wasn’t in it for the sport of taking a young girl’s life to make some scam claim about being tough on violent crime, they would probably have had an easier time convicting her of prostitution. And if the prosecution went that direction, the judge would have blocked any evidence it was a robbery, and then said "not in evidence" if her lawyers tried to say it was a robbery. If idiot Detective Sprague said prostitution right from the start, the judge would have allowed the Viagra and blocked the cash, instead of allowing the cash and blocking the viagra, And we would have seen photographs of the rubbers and sex toys in that second bed drawer that never even made it into evidence. Mandi herself hid from the other girls in jail that she was a hooker. You can lead the jury to planned robbery, prostitution, or a jealous boyfriend, just by what facts you hide. And the truth was hidden, and the verdict was wrong. It wasn’t a jury of Mandi's peers. It was a jury who knew nothing about her, and confused her with someone else. The rules of evidence wouldn’t let them know who Mandi Jackson was. The rules of evidence are designed to make people look at the evidence, not the person. There was no actual evidence Mandi did what she is accused of, so there was reasonable doubt. But it didn’t matter. The prosecution knew the evidence wasn’t there. So they told the jury never mind the evidence, do exactly what the rules of evidence prevent you from doing: Use your "common sense." In other words, take a guess at what the evidence can't show you. Without even knowing anything, take a guess at what happened. What would the average girl be doing there. Is the average girl a hooker? The jurors believed the prosecution, that Mandi tricked Mulrenin to bring her home based on a false promise of sex. The jurors might have given Mulrenin a little more credit. If jurors didn't fall for the trick that Mandi would actually go home and have sex with him, then why did Mulrenin fall for it? Mulrenin is a strip-club manager, not some dipshit who got called in for jury duty. It is not like he doesn't know girls. If the guy whose business it was to know girls thought Mandi would go home and have sex with him, is it possible he knew something the dipshit jury didn't know? The truth is Mandi looked like such a child, Mulrenin wouldn’t automatically believe she would go home and have sex with him. Even if she would in a second and said so. Not until she proved it. And Mulrenin knew she already had proved it. Because Chris Dahl knew and everybody knew the girl delivered. And that was her fourth time at Mulrenin's house that week. The jury could not believe a girl would go from guy A to guy B, and then back to guy A, so quickly. She must have been with guy A all along. But the victim in the case disagrees. Mulrenin got into the strip-club business specifically because he knows girls with loser boyfriends will come in and fuck him for a job, and then go straight back home to their loser boyfriends. Mulrenin was in the strip club business, specifically to meet and bring home the type of girl who would do exactly what Mandi did. Mulrenin was not hoping to get action from girls like witness Michelle Ervin, or the girls on the jury, who don’t cheat on their boyfriends for a pile of cocaine. Mulrenin was also not hoping to get action from girls whose boyfriends had good jobs. Mulrenin was hoping for girls whose boyfriends are dysfunctional losers. Strippers are pleasers who want to be needed, so they pick needy dysfunctional losers as boyfriends. A girl who did what Mandi did was not some unexpected evil girl who tricked Mulrenin. She was Mulrenin's primary target demographic, to exploit her dysfunctional situation. The strip-club manager knew strippers and what they would do, what he wanted them for doing, and why they would do it. He knew the situation they would be in, forced and willing to cheat on their boyfriends. The jury did not know. The victim knew more than the jury. Mandi Jackson was exactly what James Mulrenin desired. She was exactly what he had designed his career for, and worked his whole life to acquire. And she gave him exactly what he wanted. Mandi May Jackson was James Mulrenin's angel baby. That twisted old creep was in heaven. And she got two life sentences because she gave James Mulrenin exactly what he wanted, and her boyfriend didn't IV-79
