The woman, known only as juror number 12 left her job and went into hiding fearing co-workers would 'want her head on a platter'.
Her husband said before leaving she told him: 'Id rather go to jail than sit on a jury like this again.'
He told NBC News he was worried for her health and had his bags packed ready to leave if his 60-year-old wife's name gets released.
The woman, who moved to Florida from Michigan fled the area, retiring from her job working at Publix Grocery over the phone because she didn't feel safe.

Well I just heard the foreman...This is the third Juror whose mentioned their suspician of George Anthony.. not Casey.
This smells to high heaven...George Anthony was not on trial here....but apparently to these jurors he was.
This jury was way off base...just as all have stated.
Change subject here but the juror on Greta just said that they, the jury, didnt even rule out George as the murderer.
something was definitely off.....can’t see his face, so hard to tell....he’s a coward, I see....speak, but no one sees his face while talking. wuss.
something gave me a chill when the foreman said he “orchestrated” the deliberations.
This jury was charged to bring in a verdict concerning Casey Anthony....not determine anyone elses guilt. For shame...they diverted from the case they had resposibility for entirely...for shame!
He even mentioned the “lots of discussion about George”. This whole matter is worse than I had thought possible.
This is bad...and so much worse than I had thought possible. .....it’s truly hard to digest and discouraging to imagine jurors such as this.
“We the jury find the defendant not guilty,” said the jury in the Casey Anthony trial.
Those words not only stunned the millions of people watching the trial but also left a sickening feeling in the stomachs of those who rendered the verdict.
“When I had to sign off on the verdicts, the sheet that was given to me, there was a feeling of disgust that came across me, knowing that my signature and hers were going to be there, on the same sheet,” said the jury forman.
The jury foreman in the Casey Anthony trial — who asked not to be identified — says many of the jurors believe Casey Anthony killed her daughter Caylee.
But because the prosecution never showed how it happened, they were — by the letter of the law — forced to rule for acquittal on all murder charges.
The jury foreman also tells Van Susteren Casey wasn’t the only Anthony family member that raised an eyebrow of suspicion during the trial.
“Did anyone think George was believable, out of the 12 of you, George was believable or credible or were others likewise suspicious of him,” asked Greta Van Susteren.
“There was a suspicion, there was a suspicion of him that was a part of our conversation that we had of what I’d call the round robin of topics we had when we were doing deliberation,” said the jury foreman.
There have been several threats — some of them very disturbing — against the jury and Casey Anthony. The judge in the case is holding off on releasing the jurors’ names. It’s speculated Casey Anthony — who is scheduled to be released on Sunday — will be secretly whisked away for her own safety.
The interview in its entirety will air Monday night on FOX News Channel’s “On the Record.”
Preview: The jury foreman tells Greta whether jurors had suspicions about George Anthony.
George, being a police officer, says there is a smell of decomp in the car but just gets in a drives it away? The body is moved at least twice before the detectives investigate or the forensic people see it. The meter guy finds the skull and moves it twice himself and then in August the police officer doesnt even ask him to show him what he found.
No reason to think there is doubt about any of the evidence? Are you kidding me?
Casey Anthony Fan Robert Hakimoglu Jumps Into River After Bar Fight Over Verdict: Cops
http://i.huffpost.com/gen/305717/thumbs/s-CASEY-ANTHONY-APOLOGIST-ARRESTED-large.jpg
Authorities say a man struck a woman in the face and then jumped into the Indian River to elude police after a fight over the outcome of the Casey Anthony trial.
Melbourne Beach police arrived at the city’s pier late Saturday after a fight broke out among fishermen. The suspect, 42-year-old Robert Hakimoglu, jumped into the water after police asked him to stop.
Sgt. Rick Dovale says an argument started as they discussed the Anthony trial. The Orlando woman was found not guilty last week in the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee.
According to officers, Hakimoglu agreed with the jury’s decision and said he would like to meet Anthony and “maybe have kids with her.”
Hakimoglu was charged with resisting arrest, battery and an alcohol ordinance violation.

Thanks kc...pretty amazing stuff uh? Mindboggling to hear jurors believe Casey killed her child.....I’m going to say repeat that...Jurors believe Casey killed her daughter....and yet couldn’t find cause to even convict on the lessor charges.
So if they believed that then why not agree to a hung jury? Thus she could have been re-tried?
Ok, so Casey has gotten away with murdering her child and dumping her body in a swamp, according to the jurors who believe she did this...but claim they couldn’t bring in a guilty verdict.
So how does anyone process that!
George couldn’t remember about the gas cans.....perhaps he honestly couldn’t remember.......he may or may not have lied about the affair........IF he did have an affair...can you imagine admitting that to his distraught wife and daughter in jail? Some of what he testified to had other corroborating evidence. Add to that that this was only about George’s testimony....NOT whether he was the murderer....Casey was on trial for murder.......the circumstantial evidence was enormous. They are not discussing much of that.
The two times the meter reader touched the body.....for heaven’s sake....he wasn’t tossing it around...sounded like he was as reverent and discrete in his touching it....as he simply didn’t know what the heck he had found for sure. The tape stuck to the head through all that....I’d say it was on her from the get go.
Acccckkkkkkkk......this isn’t clearing anything up for me.
Letter: Dismayed by decisions of Casey Anthony’s trial jurors

Editor: I find it inconceivable that Pinellas County had 12 individuals who failed to see the evidence against Casey Anthony and allowed her to walk away from the charges. At the very least, manslaughter with aggravated child abuse. Did they read the jury instructions? Can they read? Was Casey the child’s caregiver? Did harm come to the child under Casey’s care?
Caylee is dead! The prosecution didn’t have to prove that. Her skeletal remains proved she was Caylee Marie Anthony.
I am not processing any of this....the more I hear from the jurors the more questions I have.
Guess we have to watch tomorrow........dang. tones. later...gotta go.
Thats not what the jury foreman just said on Greta. He said they dont know who killed Casey, in fact said even suspicions about George doing it.
Sounds like a capatible match to me...birds of a feather and that sort of thingy. BTW...I was reading Lazze's report with the police...Interesting he said Casey was breaking out in night sweats from nightmares a couple times a week.
He testified that the first time he picked that bag up about 4ft and the skull rolled out. The second time he picked the skull up with a stick. Id say that allows for the statement it was moved rather significantly.
Good grief, Charlie Brown, is this thread still going on? My internet was down most of the afternoon and half the evening and it’s still boogeying along.
I agree with the Jury. I hope this comes out. I can not rule him out.
Nice try CB...but he did say the jurors believed Casey killed her child....you need to see the transcript or clear your ears out or something.
But of course pinning the tail on the donkey was necessary to add...”We don’t know who”...gotta cover his fanny.
