Around 50 years ago my Father sat on a jury in DeFuniak Springs Fl.
A Black hobo was on trial and it was pretty clear the cops just rousted him for being a hobo.
Now Daddy and probably the other jurors too would be considered racists today. That did not keep them from finding him not guilty. They had no reason to just convict him whether he was Black or not.

I saw a movie with Meryl Streep, Helen Hunt, Morgan Freeman, and Matt Damon that said Florida cracker jurors always dressed in klan robes, and burned crosses in their spare time.
