Hope everyone is having a lovely weekend.
I'm reading various articles/blogs to catch up on what I missed last week. I'm reading the facebook blog of the Juror from the Marissa DeVault trial that Y/N links us to. He posted a new blog, I'm not sure if it's been linked here but he posted why juror #3 was dismissed from the CMJA retrial.

"Juror #3 had a scheduling conflict in January. The trial was supposed to complete by December 18. She was dismissed with no notice. There was no fanfare. Her schedule was not good for the court."
My apologies if this has been posted. I fell behind and am playing catch up today.
ETA: He also said that "My favorite question asked by her to Dr. Fonseca, where she inquired about the "trigger" for Travis in the Gmail exchange with Arias. She wanted to know what made him angry."
This makes me wonder that since she asked that question, the DT didn't like it and wanted her gone so they argued that her schedule would delay the trial and JSS agreed? I recall reading that one of TA's sisters appeared upset when she came out from chambers right before it was announced juror #3 was dismissed. So was the dismissal of this juror another tactic by the DT that JSS yielded to?
Whatever the reason, the loss of this juror is rather upsetting. She is intelligent and inquisitive and was a good juror.
