The jury's still out in the Kevin Spacey trial. The charges against him carry a possible life sentence.
Will the British jury associate Spacey with their country's own celebrities who got away with horrible sex crimes for decades, or will he seem pretty harmless by comparison? Will they resent a foreigner coming to their country and groping their "blokes", or will their natural servility to the upper classes kick in? And what about Spacey's failure to keep a stiff upper lip?
"Blubbing on the wi'ness stand, 'e was!"
We'll see what they decide. Spacey must have thought his chances were pretty good. He went there to stand trial voluntarily.
