I would anticipate that that would be the case. The idea is that we've spoken to jurors who for 20 years have been suffering with this sense of shame and guilt about an acquittal that it was impossible to make go any other way, and they take a sense of personal ownership for it. They are reticent to talk about it and unable to talk about it because of the secrecy rule and because they take their responsibilities very seriously. When Canadians are told not to discuss something from within the confines of court, they don't. They don't talk to their spouses about it. They don't talk to co-workers about it. They don't talk to anybody about it.
