Are you shitting me? WTF, this is the talent pool of jurors in MS. Even if it is not unanimous, the majority vote was guilty, why would they walk out and say Not Guilty. You would think if you are going to F it up, at least pick the majority vote.

Ive never seen anything like this.

They pulled the jury from McComb/Pike County because of the local coverage in Panola County.

One juror was thrown off because he tweeted about it.
Now the rest of them apparently have no clue how this works.

Judge has to declare a mistrial IMO. The guy's life is on the line and these idiots don't know what the word majority or unanimous means!

Is it simple majority or 9/3 for criminal trials in mS?
