Outside courthouse Bigo Barnett says he didn’t get a fair trial .. claiming he didn’t get a jury of his “peers”… I asked what that meant. And his attorney Joe McBride responded for Barnett

Want an Arkansas jury? Do your crimes in Arkansas.

Yep! This isn't the United States of Arkansas. What an absolute moron. It's too bad he gets to walk around before his final sentence is delivered. I hope that someone is there when they take him to prison - I wanna see his face then!

Wasn't his defense basically that he was too dumb to commit a crime?

Listening to his lawyer talk, it sounds like his defense was too dumb as well.
