  1. You should've asked the judge before leaving the courthouse.  As a juror, Did you swear not share any info. outside the courtroom about any cases?  It seems that you're sharing info. that shouldn't be discussed.  Good luck


  2. Though you found him "not guilty" on the murder charge because you were hung on the inv. manslaughter the judge most likely ordered a mistrial and the state will most likely re-try with a whole new jury on the same charges...

    It has happened before and the second time the person gets convicted of the murder charge.  Won't say it will happen here but it has in other cases...
