I said this when it came out. She did her job and her duty and I commend her for that. She looked at the evidence. The standard is Guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Think is guilty, might be guilty isn’t good enough to convict.

She did her job because of the other jurors with brains who forced her to do so. If all the jurors were like her, GZ would be in jail now. I believe she's the one who initially voted guilty of murder 2.

Guilt of a crime and guilt of an action are two different things.

I say that the criminally ill should not be permitted free range since ultimately they are not held accountable for their actions under the law. The LEFT has perverted this to demand a litmus test of mental facilities to own a gun.

Crazy people can kill with a gun, a knife, a rock, fire, a car, a pillow, pills, poison, etc. Lock up the criminally insane. PERIOD.

I have a serious issue of her saying he “got away with murder”. Murder is a crime. Accusing a man found innocent by trial of that crime is slander per se in the legal context.

I agree. A jury isn’t the place for personal feelings or opinions. She did her job regardless of how she felt about it. She should be commended for that. As for her comments now, she can say what she wants about it and people will make a judment accordingly.

My only time on a jury was a 2nd degree murder charge.

The prosecution had a better case than they had against Zimmerman, and a jury of twelve took about an hour to deliberate and come to the conclusion we could not convict the guy.

One hour. We had someone who was going to be a hold out, a guy as weak minded as this woman. He posited it was a set up to kill this guy, we reminded him there WAS NO PROOF of his assertion, that we had to find the guy guilty without a reasonable doubt or send up an acquittal. One hour.
