Patience isn't just about time. Sure they were willing to wait, but what were they waiting for? The result was pretty clear from the beginning.

  I still don't know what any of that means. Then what is patience about? Who is "they"? What does it matter if people can guess at an outcome based on prior experience? I still don't know what you mean by "patience" and I still don't know what relevance it has here.

    By "they", I mean everyone in this story except the defendant. I mean the justice system itself. "They" should be held to a high standard of expectations.

      > "They" should be held to a high standard of expectations. OK, and the justice system is. It's full of professionals, processes, training, exams, appeals processes, etc. They are held to very high standards. Why do you say we don't expect patience from them, and why is that relevant? Legal professionals like lawyers and judges seem incredibly patient, as the processes they deal with generally take months and even years.
