(CNN) -- One of the jurors who acquitted George Zimmerman said she had "no doubt" he feared for his life in the final moments of his struggle with Trayvon Martin, and that was the definitive factor in the verdict.

I understand one of the Jurors has retained a literary agent in preparation for hunting up a book deal. I'd read that this morning on Drudge, I believe... That didn't take too long. Anonymity may be a really good thing for them to maintain though. A lot of people are really, deeply emotional at the moment. I'm sure not among them, but it doesn't take more than a glance across headlines to see how many are almost taking it like a directly personal offense.

Add that to the news that came out today that TM was using elicit substances and the autopsy reports showed that his liver was damaged from continued use, which by the way had a side effect of causing anger issues and violence.
This whole case was a manipulated sham. They obviously didn't have the evidence in the beginning to arrest him or they would have, and now we know that they intentionally omitted evidence that showed TM for who he really was.
I am so glad that there are still good honest people who can see through the BS and lies that is put in front of them. These jurors did a great job of doing just that.edit on 7/15/2013 by SpaDe_ because: (no reason given)

I think as every day passes, just as before, support for their agenda will weaken and disappear just as it has in the past. They will exploit this event until there is nothing left for them to gain from it.
This doesn't mean that they won't take full advantage of the next opportunity and run with it, because we all know that they will as soon as it presents itself.

I still can't believe how disrespectful the prosecutors have been about the jury's decision. But this juror just confirmed that prosecution case was weak and that it ultimately came down to if Zimmerman feared for his life.
Not Guilty
Peace

I think this whole 'interview' was staged !!
Too much too fast.
The 'drama' of the hidden screen
The fact that B37 is writing a book ALREADY !!
How do we even know for sure that the 'woman' behind the mask is really B37 ?
Don't just assume CNN is on the up and up here.
The advertising money must be at premium prices right now
If anything, Zimmerman was guilty of not using "good judgment," the juror said.

This lady was dense. I couldn’t believe her reasoning.
Wasn’t Trayvon afraid for his life?
Zimmerman had the gun!
