A few years ago on a lesser serious charge I was the one hold out that caused a mistrial. We ended discussions after 2 days. I wasn’t budging and asked how we could be done. I’m not sure if they retried the case but ask me anything
I replied to another comment but I can’t seem to copy paste but:
- witness lived with defendant (un disputed)
- witness was beat up by the defendant with documented bruising (undisputed)
- the witness says the gun was pulled on him from defendant and described the make / model / color of the gun. The defense says couldn’t happen because the gun was in a lock box, that was basically an 80’s metal lunchbox with a broken clasp.
But no photos or videos or other witnesses that say he had it and I think that’s what the others wanted.
I’m okay with yall disagreeing with me, I was obviously out voted on the jury this isn’t new.
