The CA jury never made it to penalty phase, but in Florida only a majority needs to vote for DP after - and only after - they have found unanimously for guilty.
I have two with crockery liners that you can pull out of the heated unit and put in the fridge or serve from directly at the table. That's the only kind I like.
This is a sincere question. I've been looking for the section of the AZ State Constitution that Judge Stephens violated when she allowed secret testimony.

Because Sheppard v Maxwell https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/384/333/case.html From SCOTUS overturned...

One thing I've learned in this retrial is that my state (Florida) does not require a unanimous vote for the DP. If the jury has been unanimous in a finding of guilt for capital murder, only 7 need to vote for DP in the penalty phase...

I believe some of the jurors are smokers, so they'll probably take occasional breaks for that. Some days just reading tweets about JA's DT makes me need more ciggy breaks than I like to take!
As for the crockpot, I think it might be as simple as one of the jurors mentioning to the others that...
