The quirks of the justice system require that the jury makes a judgement purely on the evidence laid before them. Many "facts", opinions and matters of public record can be suppressed during a court hearing following various legal precedents. Based on the evidence admitted, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty and that is legally the end of the matter.

Pilots with aerobatic experience will have arrived at their own judgement as to what happened but they along with all the other PPRuNe readers are in possession of information and/or experience that was not made available to the jury. We are all guilty of bad decision making at times. Mostly we don't end up being called to account for a moments madness and it gets filed away in the don't do that again folder.
