Jury Response: What do you mean by specific question?
Play Monty Python for awhile.
If the jurors reasonably and unanimously concluded that Murder 2 was never proven beyond a reasonable doubt, I’ve got to believe that someone in that group of 6 believes manslaughter has not been proven either. There’s no way to know for certain based on evidence and what little was known to make a determination that Zimmerman did not act in self-defense. It isn’t there. It’s never been there. There’s a lack of facts/evidence and many assumptions on both sides. When it’s not clear cut and a determination can’t be made, the tie has to go to the Defense since the burden of proof is on the State.
This could be headed for a hung jury.
Question for legal experts: If there is a hung jury, what are the odds the state will or will not re-try?
