Excellent news!
With this admission of wrongdoing, the parties can move directly to damage awards, saving everyone's time. That's how this works, right? "They admitted it, now they gotta pay!"
Oh, wait.
You're conflating "we did a bad" corporate double-speak press release (meaningless) with "strict legal liability requiring a civil tort action that will be determined through the courts and possibly a jury trial with jury selection, rules of evidence, legal briefings, motions, objections, exceptions, appeals, weeks or months of court appearances, and possibly a retrial for a half dozen reasons."
Never wrote juries are "rigged". I implied they're less than ideal...for anything beyond extremely basic trials. Big difference.
