When he made that statement and did his first interviews, I was surprised by his opinions. Probably shouldn't have been, but I was. And, not in a good way.
His were the first juror comments that I heard/read.
The foreman struck me as very sympathetic to Arias, imo.
The two female jurors who did interviews did not seem to buy anything Arias and team were selling. One of them was an alternate, IIRC.
I don't think either of them would have budged on the death penalty no matter what. According to the one who was involved in deliberations, even though they all hated not being able to reach a unanimous sentencing verdict, the majority of the jurors felt too strongly in their convictions to be able to reach a compromise consensus in good faith.
Are you worried that the next jury will hang too? I am.
