I could be wrong, but I was under the impression that they had to 'follow the law' when considering the death penalty--meaning they are only to determine if JA acted in an especially heinous, cruel and depraved manner.
Whether she felt remorse or not (after the fact) is not a consideration in a finding for the death penalty. She could be a sociopath who felt nothing before, during, and after. If the juror felt the murder was especially heinous, cruel and depraved, the instructions given would indicate their finding should be death.
At least that was my impression. :dunno:
