ORLANDO, Fla. Four of the jurors at the George Zimmerman trial distanced themselves late Tuesday from statements that another juror made in a televised interview.

The four jurors issued a brief statement on court stationary saying that the opinions expressed by Juror B37 to CNN's Anderson Cooper on Monday night are not representative of their views.

"The opinions of Juror B37, expressed on the Anderson Cooper show were her own, and not in any way representative of the jurors listed below," said the statement, signed by Jurors B51, B76, E6 and E40.

Juror B37 said the actions of Zimmerman and 17-year-old Trayvon Martin both led to the teenager's fatal shooting last year, but that Zimmerman didn't actually break the law.

The four other jurors said in their statement that Martin's death weighed on them.

"Serving on this jury has been a highly emotional and physically draining experience for each of us," the statement said. "The death of a teenager weighed heavily on our hearts but in the end we did what the law required us to do."

They also made a request for privacy. The court has not released the names of the six-woman jury, which included five whites and one woman who appeared to reporters to be Hispanic.

I heard that interview on Sirius in my car.

Rush said that Martin had no prior reason in his life for someone to suspect him. He obviously doesn't know about the Miami School District scandal brewing over the falsification of records of Martin being caught with stolen jewelry and a slim jim, and the firing of school district officials for the cover-up.

Next time Hannity tries to rebut the idea that if Zimmerman hadn't got out of the car Trayvon would be alive today, he should say that if Miami school officials had reported his local burglary to the police instead of thinking about their federal funding, Martin wouldn't have been in Sanford in the first place.

Someone tell Bobby Rush, who was just on Hannity, that a black jury member would have still voted not guilty. Rush doesn’t have anything to say about all the shootings going on in his home town Chicago. The old black panther member is totally blind to most about everything.

Saw Bobby Rush on Hannity tonight. Aside from his uncompromising racially-obsessed view of the Zimmerman case, Rush stands out for his inarticulateness. Never seen a congresscritter with so much trouble getting words out of his mouth in an interview as Rush did tonight.
