It is very odd to have only a 6 person jury in a capital case.
I must wonder if the defense agreed to it.

From what I understand it’s just the way they do it in Florida. There’s no agreeing/disagreeing with it. This isn’t a special instance where they set the number at six. It’s always six.

It’s Florida law except in crimes that can end in the death penalty, from what I’ve been told.

Yeah what’s up with the 6 person jury?
It turns upside down the old phrase “I’d rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6”.
