The jurors did not tell the DA what they were deadlocked over. They told him they had issues with the word "intent" and the language in the charge.

Felony murder is a mandatory life sentence. So under this verdict #TexMcIver will spend the rest of his life in prison.

Juror 61 has been interviewed by press. Don't know where to find it though, just reading comments on twitter.

Apparently at no time during deliberations did they think it was an accident.

as people see juror interviews it would be great if you could post link. Honestly I got home just after the verdict expecting hung and am shocked. I never saw this coming and guess I owe Clint Rucker much more respect than I have given him. Wow...Tex is done...taken away in cuffs never to see the Ranch again. I am shocked and happy and do feel justice was served. Thanks for all the conversation here and updates...so helped me to keep up and see how others saw things. Can't wait for sentencing.
 
The thing is the state didn't need to give them evidence for motive, so I think juror 61 still misunderstands the charge of malice murder. If he intended to do it whether 61 knew his reasons or not is irrelevant.

IMO.
