“””On Thursday, the jury opted not to take an additional hour to deliberate, instead choosing to come back today with the verdict.
Sounds like they didn’t have much of a case. “””””””””
It’s Easter weekend and they wanted to bail. I have been on juries. Most of them will go along with anything as long as they can get out the door faster.
I was on a jury once where I was the lone hold out for finding the guy guilty...with no evidence. I looked at them and said...wth is wrong with you people! They said...we want to go home. Was a bunch of friggen teachers on the jury and I had seen one of them sleeping 2 or 3 times. Of course she was the one that requested transcripts...of the parts she slept through.
I was totally disgusted by the whole panel.
