After going around the room, each juror having their say, they voted on the charge: It was 10-2 against first-degree murder.
"We didn't know how she died, we didn't know when she died," the juror said. "Technically, we didn't even know where she died.
"You couldn't say who did it. To me, that's why it was aggravated manslaughter of a child."
That was the next charge the charge the jury could have convicted Casey Anthony on, one that could have carried a sentence of up to 15 years in prison.
Juror No. 2 believed that the mother was guilty of the "culpable negligence" requirement of that charge in the death of her daughter. He wasn't alone.
Now it was Tuesday. The vote on the manslaughter charge: 6-6. The two sides were starting to harden. They started talking over one another. Voices were raised. The foreman calmed them down. They started raising their hands and waiting to speak.
Here, then, another defense argument started to sway the jury. The defense told the jury that Caylee Anthony drowned, and the family tried to cover it up. But, as Baez said, things "snowballed out of control."
The defense also accused George Anthony of sexually abusing his daughter Casey a charge he denied. But the defense said the abuse trained Casey Anthony to lie and live in denial.
The jury didn't believe anything George Anthony had to say on the stand, according to Juror No. 2. But more important to the jurors who opposed the manslaughter charge, no one could say who was actually the child's caretaker no matter her fate: whether she was killed or died accidentally.
Juror No. 2 didn't buy that. He believed that whether or not Casey Anthony was in physical control of the child when she died, or found out about it afterward, the mother's failure to act was damning.
"The six that voted guilty said it didn't matter at what point in time she came home and found out her daughter was missing," he said. "She had to report it in some way, shape or form, and that's where the negligence came in."
But some jurors, he said, would not convict Anthony of any charge related to the girl's death.
By lunch Tuesday, the guilty side started to lose votes. Juror No. 2 was the last holdout. The other side's argument was strong, but he was still disappointed. His vote changed. The verdict was read at 2:15 p.m.
"We truly don't know what happened," Juror No. 2 said. "Somebody knows, but we don't know."
:sick: Why would anyone give in, other than wanting to go home? Poor Caylee.
