When a juror “casts doubt” on the law supposedly broken that juror is (hopefully) acting in response to his/her conscience.

LOL! She is acting in accord with her race.

I’ve got no problem with jury nullification. However, it seems to me that it should occur only after deliberation, and she should be trying to convice the other jurors to follow her thought processes, not whine about “negativity”.

When you are acting negatively, that is what you should cheerfully expect to get from others.

Now that’s something I don’t know about. According to one account I read, the juror is black but nothing was said about the defendants. You might be right...
