Any doubt about the 2 jurors? Somehow I suspect the minority view was held by members of the minority.

Sorry I had to except the article. The rest probably doesn’t have much detail you don’t already know. Race was not mentioned.

You’re wrong. When they first came out on of the jurors specifically said the holdouts were not the two black jurors.

I’ll bet that his lawyers are advising him to accept a deal.

From NBC News 5-24-2017:
Twelve jurors have been chosen for the Bill Cosby sexual assault trial: seven men and five women, two of them black, in a case where race and gender loom large
Hmm.

Isn't this the way the trial by jury system is supposed to work?

If some of the jurors aren't convinced of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt should they be trashed by the other jurors, pressured by the judge, ridiculed in the press or threatened by anyone?

If the holdouts were doing it for race or some reason other than honest judgment and doubt that would be wrong.

But if it is their honest judgement that they do not believe the accused to be guilty so be it.

This means the odds are in favor the conviction for Counts 1 and 3 in the next trial. The prosecutor convinced 10 of the 12 jurors this time around, so his argument was generally convincing.

“Any doubt about the 2 jurors? Somehow I suspect the minority view was held by members of the minority.”

That has always been my thought as well.

This reeks of jury nullification like we saw in the OJ verdict.
