Default Jury sides with Ryobi in tablesaw liability lawsuit

I only looked at this today.
http://www.woodmagazine.com/blogs/wo...14/jury-sides-
with-ryobi-in-tablesaw-liability-lawsuit/

"About 2 years after a Massachusetts jury awarded Carlos Osorio $1.5
million when he mangled his hand in an accident with a Ryobi tablesaw (a
verdict that is still under appeal), an Illinois jury has found in favor of
Ryobi and its parent company, One World Technologies, in a similar product-
liability lawsuit."

Has anyone seen more recent news on this? Seems to me this should have
been the verdict in the Osorio case as well ...

Now the appealing lawyers (oxymoron in the pun) will have a field day.

Holy crap, Batman! Did you say an "Illinois" jury? This only proves
that not everyone in a blue state is a liberal idiot.
