Overheard on CNN:


Juror B37

"We really gave the testimony by law enforcement MUCH greater weight than that of anyone who testified against Mr. Zimmerman, and we believed the police testimony DESERVED to have greater weight because they deal with criminals all the time, even though Trayvon wasn’t really a criminal—he was just out buying candy and a drink. None of us was deaf, so of course we heard the judge’s instruction that the police officer’s testimony that he believed Zimmerman to be innocent should be stricken from our consideration, and that we should not give a law enforcement officer's testimony greater weight than that of anyone else, but do you really think we listened to the judge’s instructions? What does he know? The judge isn’t a cop.”
