I didn’t follow the trial, but my understanding is that the prosecution’s case was based on circumstantial evidence. The gemara in Sanhedrin 57a requires an eyewitness to execute someone for murder, which is what the prosecution was trying to do. The jury may have saved the country from being in violation of one of the Noachide laws.
