The way I see it, an alleged murderer is entitled to a trial by an impartial jury of one's peers. However, It would be improper for victims of the deceased to serve on the jury trying the murder case.
When the deceased has continuously harassed everyone with a phone for the past 20+ years, it is impossible to assemble an impartial jury. Impossible to assemble a jury means it is also impossible to convict.
