"I say we accept the verdict of the jury."

What does that mean? We all do recognize what the jury decided. There's absolutely no obligation to agree with them.

"The defense failed to prove guilt without a reasonable doubt."

I think you mean the prosecution. That's only one possibility. Another is that they did prove and the jury failed to recognize it.

"That’s the way the American judicial system works."

Yes. So? Doesn't mean any given jury can't be wrong.

So far the 2 jurors and the 1 alternate that have spoken have underimpressed me. There answers to questions are lame and juror #11 who spoke to Greta last night sounded like a complete moron.
