I listened to Feldman and he talked to the entire JURY.

I just realized your problem. Too literal. Feldman was appealing to the possible juror who disagreed with the rest in the case of a hung jury. He encouraged that juror to hold his ground. If he thought that the majority of the jurors were on his side he would have encouraged the juror to go with the majority.

THis goes directly against Feldman's whole disposition during his closing argument. DUSEK wanted one juror to go with the majority, he said so.

Feldman told the JURORS to JUDGE FOR THEMSELVES. MAKE UP THEIR OWN MIND.

You have your opinion of what those words mean, and I have mine.
