Anyone who wanted to smear RPGs would have a very easy time when they picked up a V:tM Manual. It is really meant to be played by mature adults. In this case in particular, thre was a surprising lack of evidence. All of the facts cited by the prosecution were entirely circumstantial. The fact that the accused teacher lacked an alibi during the time of the murders certainly didn't help his case either. Again, because physicial evidence was nary to be found, they had to fill their airtime with something. The jurors admitted that they dind't swallow the link to Vampire. I don't think NBC would have brought it up in the first place if the prosecution hadn't brought it up. Frankly, if I was a prosecuter trying to convict a guy like this on little evidence I would go for character asassination.</blockquote>
