Sweet mother of god, what were these charges? I guess I should have read them before I looked at this article. My initial assumption was that one of the charges included molestation and/or rape. (see The Charges).
So...8 men and four women (I count five women based on news results)
Juror #1 (male, 62) thought that Jackson probably did molest boys, but that did not match the charges presented.
Juror #2 (man?)
Juror #3 (woman, 50) thinks the parent is a cheat and that the parent is a scam artist
Juror #4 (woman, 51)didn't like the way a person giving testimony looked at the jury
Juror #5 (woman, 79) didn't like the mom's snapping fingers and put her on trial instead of Jackson.
Juror # 6 (male?)
Juror # 7 (male?)
Juror # 8 (woman, 42) put the accused moral values and his parents parenting skills on trial
Juror # 9 (male?)
Juror # 10 (woman) put the mom on trial for letting the kid go to Jackson's house.
Juror # 11 (male?)
The Jury Forman (male, 63) didn't like the mom.
Ok, so I am still working to put the facts straight, but it looks to me like the jury forgot (or I am missing a key piece of information) what they were doing. It also seems that the jury is not a complete set of peers. How many pop-stars are on the list? How many are in their mid thirties to late fourties? How many black(ish)?
