It does not take a unanimous verdict, just a majority. Everyday, men get indicted in fifteen minutes or less. Because these proceedings are secret until unsealed by the court, you won't be reading about them in the papers.

Yes, it's astounding that it took a big chunk of a day to reach this result - merely a nonsexual statue - and that's handwriting on the wall for this Industry about Johnson County, KS.
