Like I said MikeP, a jury trial before your peers can invalidate any law. Franz Guest found that out on the Vineyard with Belushi. A loud not guilty nullifying any evidence will keep the DA's office from filing charges in the future.
The problem they'll have is that the defendants are tourists, most likely, and they won't be going in front of a jury of their "peers" in Orleans District Court come the winter

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
