If you didn't learn from an experience, chances are high the blame lies with you and not the experience.
Here are some things you can easily learn from this article…
"Smart" people are easily duped.
Things which seem obvious at first are often less obvious -- did you originally assume he was innocent, a bumbling professor? What about after the texts? Did you believe he was innocent then? Did you WANT to?
What is it that kept you reading the whole story? Something the author did? A technique you could use yourself?
Etc etc etc etc. If you expect "learnings" to present themselves to you on a plate, labeled "Learnings," pre-selected and pre-digested for you, you will never become as wise as you could.
