Does ordering a retrial not indicate that the appeal judges think he may still be guilty, but it just wasn't safe to convict him in the original trial? It's not an out right acquittal, is it?

This is so depressing. I suppose we can expect waves of rape apologists through crowing about how they were right, etc etc. I wonder what the "new evidence" was?

I feel so desperately, desperately sorry for his victim in all of this. Her life must be in ruins. Poor woman.
