No, but it does reveal the extent to which it's a fiction that jurors will be blank slates. Trials of this level of publicity are not immune from outside influence and even moving the trial to another location would not mean the jurors had no preconceptions of the case.
But the trial is not one of mob rule simply because you dislike the outcome. That is just assuming the jurors didn't make a reasonable decision or caved to pressure. There is no evidence of that.
