Juror B in the Zimmerman Trial

Juror B in the Zimmerman trial came out and said her heart said something different than the law and the verdict. Really? A standard charge in almost any criminal trial by a judge is: “As jurors you are solely judges of the facts. You must accept the Law as I hand it down to you.” Really? The jurors could have found Zimmerman guilty based on the facts. Even accepting sometimes the illogic of the Law, Jurors with courage have used jury nullification to do the right thing, despite the Law. Really.

    women of color uninformed regarding a young
    black teen being shot dead for being black. 4. Usually someone moving to another state
    must register as a resident. It takes atleast several years to be called for jury duty. Shemade it in 90 days.6. 5 other jurors are gun holders. Why did they own guns? What or whom were they afraiid of. This was a set up.
