I think the media coverage is out of control over this. He was guilty after a trial and whatever evidence was heard in court prompted those jurors to make that decision. Perhaps it was a fluke and all the jurors were burglars or perhaps the evidence was there that proved Tony Martin went beyond the remits of reasonable force.

The jury were not in possession of all the facts when they made their decision
and they were not allowed to choose a verdict of manslaughter at the original trial.
