Was someone from the bank stationed in the jury room, covering the jurors with an AK?

No, but I get your point. The jury followed the law. She spent money that she knew was not hers. My friend on the jury said that moving to another state didn't help her either. She knew she was doing wrong.

Well, I wasn't there, but if

she had a stack of letters from bank officials saying that the huge balance was correct and that the bank had not made a mistake. The money was hers

and that's all valid, then I as a juror would say she did no wrong and should suffer no penalty.

A lot of injustice is done by juries that believe they are required to robotically "follow the law".
