There seem to be a number of remorseful jurors coming forward. What were they thinking when they decided on a not guilty charge?

Let me fix that last sentence....

What? Were they thinking? They decided on a not guilty charge?

That’s the problem they didn’t follow instructions. Everyone that has yakked has went back to the opening statements which are not evidence - as instructed by the court. Reasonable doubt is not any doubt as referenced by another poster. One other important instruction clearly not followed was to not discuss the case among themselves prior to deliberations. Somebody led the group from day one, while they were wined and dined. I am sure they talked about how much more valuable a not guilty verdict would be perhaps, but hopefully they are wrong. You reap what you sow when you don’t take your responsibility seriously.

When one of the jurors said that the prosecution couldn't even say for certain how the child was killed...

well, there is a serious problem for the prosecution's case.

Derelict in their assigned duties to carefully weigh the evidence, not consider penalty phase or motive, sick of being sequestered, too weak to do some actual deliberating (first vote was 6-6, QUITE different from the outcome) and I could go on and on.

They were weak so they caved and bailed. And they're upset that people are upset that Caylee was thrown away a second time??

I suspect what is really going on is that this dame has been reading and watching television, either feels guilty or like a total dumbass, and is too ashamed to face her family, neighbors, and co-workers. Only they know that she's on the jury because THEIR NAMES HAVE NOT BEEN RELEASED.

I smell Drama Queen, bigtime.

Overtired??? Mob mentality??? You know go along to get along. And maybe they just wanted the heck out of there and made a snap decision. Who knows? What they did though was make a huge mistake. They just let a murderous fend off scott free.
