Anyone who can shoot someone and get away with it becomes increasingly more confident with each incident.

I just saw this mentioned and came here to find out more. The execution style murder, along with texting friends who come running immediately, could be explained as gang behavior.

What exactly does the next step look like? Will the same witnesses be brought in, and will the same questions be asked? It is just like an instant replay? And if so, why can't they just show the tapes of the trial?

Does anyone else find it odd that the juror questions seemed to indicate that the jury "got it"? They understood that JA was lying. Yet the jury foreman is conveying sentiments much different from what was implied through the jury questions. Hmmmmm.

That's exactly what I think! He gets up at 4 AM to do the GMA interview. Imagine how surprised his fellow jurors were when they got up and found out he blindsided them.

Does it seem strange to anyone else that yesterday it was announced that the jury was going to hold a press conference, and then it was cancelled? In light of the foreman being on GMA this morning, at 4:10 AM his time, I find the cancellation very curious indeed. I will find it even more...

This is so succinct. You described his demeanor precisely. Did you notice how he responded to one question? "That's a very good question, Elizabeth...." Elizabeth? You're on a first name basis now? That speaks volumes. And for those of you who are accusing some of being emotional, this...

Exactly!! That's why I think the jurors made a deal during the first verdict, and some jurors agreed to murder one in exchange for not coming back with a DP verdict. Think about it. For the first two verdicts, the jury took much longer than we thought, but for the last phase, they said they...

I agree! Bring it on jurors!

I think you're right that the foreman wants to speak first before others contradict what he is saying. His message does not fit with the tone of the many questions the jurors submitted. I think he was the lone dissenter, but was able to influence others on the jury because of his position as...

Can someone tell me how we know that the split was 8 to 4 on the jury? I missed that and would love to know what the source is for that information. Thanks.

Well, based on the fact that he thinks TA abused JA, it was probably the survivor t-shirt. So many THs said that the fact she showed the t-shirt sealed the deal for her, and I agreed. But now we learn that the jury foreman bought into her claim that she was abused.

Emphasis mine. I agree. I think he was one of the holdouts. I bet many other jurors are not happy that he said that.

How do you know that? I'm not disputing it, I just missed that info and want to know where it came from. Thanks.

Yes! That is what he said! I wonder if he was one of the holdouts. I wonder if there was a deal made when the jury FINALLY agreed to murder one. Was there a holdout for that, and they told that holdout that if he/she agreed to murder one, they wouldn't go for the DP.

I agree. I'm very concerned about this.

Do we know how the jurors are dressed today? That might give some indication of whether there will be a verdict today or not.

Zoozoo, you had a very well thought out post near the end of the last thread that I think would be very valuable posted again in this thread. You spent a lot of time working through a viable explanation for the confusion about the jury's question. Many of us would benefit from reading it...

I have tried not to get too emotionally attached to the DP, because I'm not sure we will get it. (I am a late to this case, only following it on websleuths since the end of March, so I had a lot of catching up to do.) But after hearing Steven and Samantha speak last week, I couldn't help but...

This is what I am thinking also. I can almost hear the glee in their note, thinking that they just need to tally up the votes and then they are done. I will admit that I tune out when the judge reads the instructions, so I'm not sure if the instructions made it clear that they were to make a...
