Did 12 Angry Men Get It Wrong?

By now you are well aware of how easy it is to “cherry pick” evidence.  In the article you just read, Mike D’Angelo makes the case that the jurors in 12 Angry Men made a big mistake in their assessment of the evidence: while there was room for reasonable doubt about any of the pieces of evidence taken individually, their combined weight really leaves no room for doubt.  Do you agree with his assessment?  Why or why not?
