]I could be wrong, but it seemed to me that during the trial, the TH's, JC, and others were claiming the jurors were riveted to their seats every time JA was examining witnesses, and slumped back and not paying attention when the defense was examining witnesses. They were also saying the jurors were taking lots of notes when JA was speaking except for juror #4 who only took notes when JB was talking.[/B] I read tweets from roughly 20 different tweeters who saw the skull photos/duct tape unblurred, and the tweets did not agree with each other as far as what they thought they were seeing. In other words, we can look at the same thing, and still see it entirely different than the person sitting right next to us. JC is just going to say what she thinks will garner her the most praise from her adoring public. It is very popular to criticize anything KC, KC's dt, or KC's jury, so, I would expect all juries in the near future, who come to a guilty verdict, did what KC's jury did not, and all juries who come to a not guilty verdict, must have relatives in Pinellas county.
As always, my entire post is my opinion only.

THANK YOU!..I have been thinking this and wondered if I was crazy. I swore TH made mention during the A trial ,the jurors were taking notes. Attentive when JA talked.
It's easy to say the 12 were stupid but that isn't an answer! These were 12 American citizens from different walks of life, different ages. The ones that had children and grandchildren had to have cared about Caylee, even the ones that had no children had brothers and sisters. To say they were just stupid isn't fair and it's not an answer to why they didn't convict. Everyone, even the DT was shocked at the verdict...
What I have noted watching the CM trial is how prepared both the prosecution and defense are, how questioning the witnesses so far seems much quicker. How fast the judge talks..LOL
The issue of sequestration came up during the CM jury selection refering to the mistake made by the A jurors. Who was responsible for this decision?
The unorganized and very confusing, unethical and obvious lack of experience concerning the defense side.
Who was responsible for allowing the defense to "get away with" all their unethical tactics..DS mothering FCA, table facing the jurors, Judge P basically doing JB's job at times...Who was responsible for the courtroom behavior?
Was their enough options of charges given, too many...too little or just right.
Did the state, knowing this type of crime, mothers who are accused of killing their children, overcharge this case?
Who was responsible for choosing the jurors?
Who was responsible for giving the jurors their instructions? Who was the author of these instructions?
Who put 12 people, uneducated in the law in that courtroom?
Who were the 12 people that came to the verdict and why didn't they ask questions, look at evidence?
Honestly...sit down with a pen and paper and list all the mistakes that were made in this trial and tell me that the only thing you can come up with is
12 Stupid People!
I visit JA's FB page and what I see are a bunch of "sheep" following their hero, their putting JA on a pedestal...everyone showering him with admiration...what I posted on there isn't a popular opinion...I told him he was crazy to come out of retirement..he's worked for how many years? I told him to take this time to enjoy his life with his family and the ONLY reason I didn't get slammed is because he has rules on his page.
Some speak so highly of Judge P but where was he when JB was pulling his stunts? Can you imagine how frustrated JA was to have to sit back and watch this show...No wonder he was giggling, he probably wanted to ring JB's neck maybe along with the Judge...
You can see the differences in Judge P and the CM judge..CM judge keeps things moving..doesn't allow DT games...no sequestration for jury...
Sequestration isn't a new idea, been around for a long time.
I like Judge P..I like JA..but their not infallible ...thats why it's not popular for the TH's to point out their mistakes..people would be PO and go to another station..so add them to the list.
I'm sayin..it's not fair to blame one thing or one person..or a group of 12 people alone for the failure of "Justice for Caylee". It's because those 12 people were the last word. Who's idea was that?....JMO
