If this is all the information and charges, then it's clearly not guilty (not innocent though).

I'm not holding any of the details back, but I will mention that on the second charge, the judge specifically told us that according to the (Maryland) law, circumstantial evidence is to be given just as much weight as non-circumstantial evidence.

i say: screw maryland law. give the evidence the weight you feel it deserves. i've never understood this view of jury duty. your job is administer justice not punish according to guidelines decided by maryland law someone who may or may not have violated maryland law.
