Unfortunately, body language is all we have at this point. And this can be even “thinner gruel” because, this juror might truly be sympathetic to the defense’s case, and yet come under such peer pressure from 11 other jurors, that he/she cannot stand up to the pressure and ultimately succumbs. We will never know who this was or what stand they took. Watch “12 Angry Men” to see how it is for one holdout on a jury.

BTW, on a lighter note, look up an old Dick Van Dyck show that was a really funny parody of “12 AM”. I think it was the 3rd season, but maybe not. Anyway, DVD is on a jury considering whether a voluptuous babe has stolen jewelry. He is the only holdout on the jury, and everyone (including his wife!) thinks he is holding out because he is captivated by her. And he does incredibly embarrassing things in the courtroom. A very funny show, especially if you are familiar with “12 AM”.

If Trump does somehow walk you will ABSOLUTELY know who.....I wouldn’t doubt that warning has already been conveyed to the jury......after all, there was plenty of time for that considering they weren’t sequestered......and I guarantee you THAT decision wasn’t incidental.
