God know I adore Teh Martha, but there was compelling forensic analysis, which did indicate evidence tampering (I'm referring specifically to the ballpoint pen/ink analysis). I can't say I am distressed by the verdict per se, although I do find it to be an unfortunate situation for Martha. Undoubtedly it was not worth a measly $45K (I say measly in comparative terms) stock loss.
Someone was out to get her for something. You don't just try to nail someone for insider trading. It's not a "victory for the little guy" unless they get every rich New Englander ever to stop doing it too. >:(
