How anybody could possibly come to a conclusion of "not guilty" is beyond me.

There's a hell of a custody fight going on over seven-year-old Carl:
A lawyer for a Dillingham couple entangled in a custody fight over a 7-year-old orange tabby cat named Carl opened his defense today, the second of a planned four-day trial in civil court.
A former employee of Fosselman & Associates, where Carl lived for six years before fire consumed the building in February 2006, testified the cat wasn’t really considered a “company cat.”
Employees voted to keep Carl at the South Baily Street accounting firm, former employee Patricia Arnold testified. But under questioning by the Fiesers’ attorney, Eric Conard, she testified that she understood that Carl belonged to a former partner in the firm, Traci Weiland.
Catherine Fosselman, owner of the accounting firm, is suing a former employee, Staci Fieser, and her husband, Jason Fieser, for the return of Carl, along with $100,000 in punitive damages. Trial started Wednesday with selection of a 12-member jury. Fosselman testified Thursday, and her lawyer, Andrew Robinson, has concluded his case.
According to employees, Fosselman retrieved Carl from the burning building, neglecting other items of value to her and her company, and gave him to Fieser for safekeeping. Fieser took him home, and he’s lived with the Fiesers ever since.
The Fiesers currently live in Dillingham, where Jason Fieser, a state trooper, is posted. He testified Thursday that his superiors threatened him with “internal consequences” and possible criminal charges unless his wife handed over the cat.
