2: Fact check and context:
State of Florida v. George Zimmerman
Verdict: Not guilty
Charge:
Second-degree murder
Manslaughter (lesser included offense)
The jury was not allowed to consider Third degree murder in deliberation
The jury consisted of 6 people
One juror going by B37
"She said that in an initial vote, three of the jurors had voted to find Zimmerman not guilty, but two had voted to find him guilty of manslaughter and one had voted to find him guilty of second-degree murder:[204] "there was a couple of them in there that wanted to find him guilty of something and after hours and hours and hours of deliberating over the law, and reading it over and over and over again, we decided there's just no way, other place to go."[203] Jurors cried when they submitted their final vote to the court officer, she said."
"Four of the other jurors released a statement saying that Juror B37's views should not be regarded as representative of their views on the trial."
Another said (B29) "George Zimmerman got away with murder, but you can't get away from God. And at the end of the day, he's going to have a lot of questions and answers he has to deal with."
"As the law was read to me, if you have no proof that he killed him intentionally, you can't say he's guilty....you can't put the man in jail even though in our hearts we felt he was guilty."
