Had this been a trial in state court in the state of Louisiana, this one juror everyone is praising would have been nothing more than a footnote in the court minutes, as 11-1 is a proper jury verdict, as is 10-2. In fact, the rest of the jury wouldn’t have even had an obligation to listen to anything that person had to say.

In the OJ case, the jurors in the criminal case came to the unanimous decision that the State failed to meet the (high) burden for a criminal conviction.


LOL.... the jurors in the criminal case let OJ walk because he was black. Don't kid yourself.

Seems like only last week that the forum consensus said that the OSC had the incompetent legal staff.
Right. A team inclusive of lawyers who succeeded in convincing courts to sentence individuals on nonexistent law. A team inclusive of lawyers who bankrupted national businesses and succeeded in getting jail time for targets, regardless of innocence. That requires great skill.

Crooked? Yes. Corrupt? Probably. Partisan? Definitely.

Incompetent? Nope.

The point is that just because they saw all of the evidence doesn’t mean they will get it right, genius.
Your drivel proves my point about yahoos on the internet.

There was lots of evidence against OJ ... as confirmed by the civil verdict and judgment against him. That is not the same as “beyond reasonable doubt.”. Intelligent people who heard the evidence in both trials (criminal and civil) mostly agree that BOTH juries got it right, genius.

*Juror believes Mueller's prosecution team wanted to undermine Trump

I hope she went into a protection program.

This is not the lone holdout, that juror is currently unknown.


We don’t have the name of the juror yet but someone leaked his picture.
