Hmmmmm..........
On second thought, I don't believe it for a minute!
This jury was too articulate. There is no way. Besides, the judge had them turn off their cell phones when they began deliberating. I too think it's just a troll spreading rumors. I hope they're proud of themselves. Now they can smile for the camera when they see the SBI at their door.
I'll wait for them to finish their probe. JY can only hope that's what happened and he's given a third go-round.
I was very close friends and carpooled with someone on a jury long ago. She was gone 4 days a week and just worked on Fridays for about a month or so. She never ONCE said what the trial was, nothing! We didn't ask either......She told us when it was all over. She was an alternate, btw, but agreed with the verdict reached, which turned out to be HIGHLY controversial at the time.
Murder of an under-cover officer in a drug deal. That jury was brought out and raked over the coals everywhere for the not guilty verdict. Seems according to the rules, the guy THOUGHT the under-cover guy was trying to rip him off and the accused claimed the LE drew first. Nothing to dispute it and from all evidence, it COULD have been that way. But COULD have wasn't good enough. So the slime walked and the jury hated themselves for giving that verdict too.
The short is, these jurors most likely didn't break the rules. It's probably someone who WISHES someone did so they could reverse the verdict.
Win/win for whoever thought of this, UNLESS they get caught. But if he'd walked and this was found out or investigated, wouldn't have made any difference, I do not THINK as double jeoprady would apply. IF it could have ANY merit at all, JY could at the least, get a new trial.
I pray it's not true!
JMHO
and all that
