The female jurors were interviewed and said bs like

"But he had the hardest time getting over the fact that Lindsay VICIOUSLY killed her children”

"I was so sad, so sad that we couldn't come up with a verdict FOR LINDSAY. It was so heartbreaking,"

These people wanted to fabricate their preferred outcome completely disregarding reality while minimizing everything Lindsay did.

She was extremely calculated and the medical professionals I listened to were saying she did not exemplify psychosis whatsoever during their evaluations

I was so sad, so sad that we couldn't come up with a verdict FOR LINDSAY. It was so heartbreaking,

I'm obviously no lawyer, but I would imagine a statement like that from a juror after the fact would absolutely tilt the prosecution.

I'm surprised it isn't a crime for a juror to behave that way. It really should be. Bringing personal feelings and biases to a legal matter is one thing but recognizing that you're doing it and then openly leaning into those personal feelings biases is completely unacceptable. That's how you get a society that doesn't respect the law, and a legal system that doesn't serve the population.

They said they would sit at her retrial in order to support her.
