Meet the juror who voted for murder.
She wouldn’t/couldn’t convict ultimately but she seems to think the outcome was a moral travesty, yet she also thinks that the trial was a “publicity stunt” by the prosecution and never should have happened. If there’s one thing a raw, divided America needs now to heal after the verdict, it’s … the opposite of this, basically:
“You can’t put the man in jail even though in our hearts we felt he was guilty,” said the woman who was identified only as Juror B29 during the trial. “But we had to grab our hearts and put it aside and look at the evidence.”…
“George Zimmerman got away with murder,"
“That’s where I felt confused, where if a person kills someone, then you get charged for it,” Maddy said. “But as the law was read to me, if you have no proof that he killed him intentionally, you can’t say he’s guilty.”…
She said she believes she owes Trayvon Martin’s parents an apology because she feels “like I let them down.”
“It’s hard for me to sleep, it’s hard for me to eat because I feel I was FORCEFULLY included in Trayvon Martin’s death.
“She like many including some here even.
CANNOT SEE BEYOND HER OWN DARK SKIN AND MINORITY STATUS
This affliction and how silly white people deal with it has killed my country”

BINGO, wardaddy!

Law and Order:
Saw your face on TV
You say “It’s all right, have no fear;
I am here”
Panic’s ended
Your rights defended
From those who tried
To tell you about the other side
Of life, the strife that’s going on
Go to sleep now
Count the sheep now
With us the dream will never end
It’s easy to take what you are told
They said we need law and order
But now all our lives are bought and sold
And just for some law and order
Now your days grow colder
The plans they’ve got for you are clear
So clear
You’re not so sure
You want that cure
And those who tried
To tell you about the shit that’s going down
are found out on the moor
But just don’t ask how
Curfew starts now
Get off the streets and bolt the door
We’ll get away from here one day
I’ll take you across the border
There’s got to be somewhere we can stay
Where they don’t need law and order
It’s easy to take what you are told
They said we need law and order
But now all your lives are bought and sold
And just for some law and order
We’ll get away from here one day
I’ll take you across the border
There’s got to be somewhere we can stay
Where they don’t need law and order
And to think that morons like this have the power of life and death in capital cases.
She thought that he was guilty, but the evidence forced her to acquit. At least she followed the evidence in her decision.
Yeah?
Geeze lady.
You slay me....
I think the first one intended to, but she got death threats instead because she is white.
Always tough when you can’t find the facts to validate your prejudices......
As part of a personal survival strategy, her words make sense. The “Justice for Trayvon” types who initially wanted to lynch her will now probably forgive her. She has blamed an acceptable villain: Whitey’s unjust judicial system. It magically forced her to vote not guilty, though she wanted to vote guilty! This will make sense only to the brain-dead, but that is the only group she had to fear.
can Z sue her?....sue her for defamation of character?
I have no idea. She was on the jury and voted him Not Guilty, so this is all just strange
She is reacting precisely as the prosecution argued she should.
“Is this the Hispanic juror?”
Does not look hispanic at all !
Don't lose faith in humanity!
Jurors are (sadly) mostly chosen for their lack of critical thinking skills!
While it's sad that this waste of oxygen is still walking around, and worse flapping her pie hole, the GREAT thing is that justice was served and GZ is free! :-)
Or as someone once said, “The people on jury duty are the ones who were too stupid to figure out how to get out of doing jury duty.”
LOL! Very good, I’ll remember that!
She does not speak well.
She shoulda said that he is guilty of murder under her personal definition of murder, but under the law [as cited, above], he was not guilty.
Amen to that!
