Unfortunately I don't think that I've enough knowledge to fix this. Just a thing I noticed though:

In the error message, the path sometimes says "Adafrut_DHT" instead of "Adafruit_DHT"; Could that be the cause of the problem?

For example here:
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/Adafruit_DHT-1.1.0-py2.7-linux-armv7l.egg/Adafrut_DHT/common.py"

Is this normal or did I make this happen?

What system are you running on, is it a Raspberry Pi or something else? The code is actually platform-specific and has a C extension to very quickly read GPIO on the Pi. If you try to run on other platforms beyond the Raspberry Pi & BeagleBone Black unfortunately it won't work because they don't have the optimizied code to read the sensor. I have a feeling integrating with Jython will be difficult because the code uses Python C extensions and I'm not sure Jython supports it. Your best bet would be to have Jython call the Python scripts here, for example the Adafruit_DHT.py in the examples could be called by a Jython script and its output parsed to grab the readings. Again though it will only work on a Raspberry Pi (zero, 1, 2, 3) or BeagleBone Black. Good luck!
