[@jamesbroomfield7799]

The problem is if a juror is sleeping throughout the trial at different times, that means they most likely already have an agenda and they already had their mind made up prior to even listening to all the evidence. So that means no matter what you argue with them what you talked to them about what you show them they're already going to have their mind made up. Weather is guilty or not guilty nobody knows but still it's not right because that person is just going off of assumptions and feelings instead of listening to evidence

[@bbash578]

As someone who would occasionally "nod off" in class, you miss a a lot of info.

[@KimberlyLetsGo]

Either way, the juror wasn't paying attention.

[@911axe]

This guy totally was the kid who told the teacher that they forgot to give out homework before classes ended for the weekend.

[@krystaldaniels7940]

This trial has been a $h:t show from the start!! I found it hard to listen to that attorney at times because he began every sentence/question with “And” and then ended every statement/question with “right?”. Here we are, on the day of jury deliberations and they come up with a juror sleeping through extremely important portions of the trial?! You have GOT to be kidding🙄

[@lauren_WI]

😊I know, “right?” Ugh….

[@justsayin3600]

The fact he didn't bring it up to the team so at least there could be more witnesses but only after the fact is certainly suspicious. Not to mention his answers to questioning didn't seem convincing.

[@TheMaestro7777777]

It’s because everyone knows he is guilty

[@TheMaestro7777777]

Even he knows he is guilty 😂

[@lindas.4864]

He "asked" the witnesses a question then followed every question with saying "Correct" before witness could answer.

[@TheDewaltBoy]

This was an absolute joke of a jury.

[@taviaturner3070]

He saw her sleeping for “over an hour during the video”; Prosecuter: “the video was only 56 minutes”. 😂😂😂😂

[@elainew2230]

They have someone on that jury that is over 90. Why in the world anyone would think that's a good idea is beyond me.

[@patlynch3464]

State and Investigator know they are going to lose.

[@susieque5030]

Yea, state didn’t lose the case, so stick that where the sun don’t shine

[@N.Narwhal]

yeah?

[@JayInDecent]

Lololol

[@mariemurphy2748]

​@@susieque5030unbelievable how the jury found him guilty just watching those teenagers lie on the stand under oath it was so obvious they couldn't even lie well so the jury had to hear their testimony and been like ok these kids have no respect for anyone nor the law and they still choose to break the law after 2 years of lying to police drinking and drugging underage harassing someone especially an elder verbally then physically pushing him in the water trying to hold him down and punching his head all while laughing at him calling him names and saying stupid things like for the culture!!! Video taping the whole thing and after the man took all that abuse in the water he and I know I would have feared for my life and so would all of you he then brings out a knife to hold up so they would stop and back away but they were still close enough for him to start swinging that knife around until some people finally backed up and then here comes Issac running up to choke him not once but twice where he leaned into Miu to get him to the ground to make it easier to choke him and in the process of doing that he pushed himself onto the knife and that is what killed him, instead of calling the police when he saw this assault going on he decided to take it in his own hands to go down and try and kill the old man and got killed in the process..was that a good decision of a good young man that might of thought differently if he had been taught right from wrong or had been taught how to act in public and to never disrespect your elders. Ever!!! If they were feeling scared which the video shows they were not scared at all until it was too late! I can't believe out of that many teens that not one of them stepped up and did the right thing and called the police immediately and or told these so called friends to stop their behavior right now or I'm going to fuck your life up! That's what I would have said to my friends if I ever saw them do something so vile to anyone especially an old man by himself! You. Better believe I would have called the police and told the truth on them because I certainly would not continue a friendship with evil kids that saw that as entertainment! Sickening

[@Sassyquatch1020]

Don’t jury’s always have alternates? Why wouldn’t they just dismiss her and put in an alternate instead of trying to get an entire new trial

[@colleenpiechowski8511]

I don't think k the always have an alternate. You think they would on a murder case.

[@keli449]

I believe they do have an alternate witness but they also must investigate this in a court of law to be fair.

[@Sassyquatch1020]

@@keli449 I like the point the judge made that during the alleged “nod off/sleeping” they were playing a video that she could just rewatch later. I wonder if since all of these trials are being filmed now, if the jury could technically request to review any part they might want to see again. Cause the judge said “it’s not like live testimony that is lost forever”… but in actuality it won’t be lost forever. It’s on KZbin 😂

[@dc4334]

Because the prosecution is trying to get rid of a juror they believe will side with the defense. They’re playing games.

[@triciac1019]

They probably did.

[@logjammin084]

[@mountainmantoo]

Prosecution has to resort to stacking "new" charges and bore the jury with lengthy instructions.

Or they'll get poked back. Literally

[@jamesbroomfield7799]

My problem is why would you pick a 90 year old juror knowing that being that old it's hard to pay attention to things and it's hard to stay awake. And even if the juror was awake, it's still hard for someone that old listen to hear into just be attentive in the first place let alone being sleepy

[@dianelavoie6208]

Because they think old people will be sympathetic to an older supposedly frail defendant.

Have you been 90 before? How do you know what it's like? 😂

@@stevemcintosh6711 No they didn't. You couldn't wait to come right here when you heard the verdict as if somehow that proves anything other than the State doesn't need shit to prosecute you. The state was sweating that whole time. Any half wit could see that. This just shows how little prepared a State can be to sway a jury as well as how dumb it is to talk to police. Nothing else.

[@BongzillaBrutus]

@@stevemcintosh6711 Your a wannabe prosecutor. Probably currently a public pretender at best. Your a dime a dozen if you even are an attorney. It's the people that scrub toilets, cook, clean, and sweat every day at work that keep this Country going and you'd do well to remember that. I'm not an attorney but I'll wager I have a more impressive caseload than you do. I beat bogus felony assault charges from solitary confinement with a BS public pretender but I was smart enough to use that time to hit the law library that was suddenly readily available. Law books that blue collar folks won't ever have access too but the term the prosecutor used b4 I got released was "jail house lawyer". The hardest part about being a lawyer is filling out the legal paperwork and making sure it's all correct and it's the paralegals that do that for them. A blue collar worker. So suck on that bruh.

[@jesseerickson662]

No matter what happens there's a group of teenagers that will think twice before fuckin with anyone else.

Should you ever be in a position of defending yourself on trial I hope the jury selected is able to stay awake. It's not an insult to anyone if the juror was indeed sleeping

[@nobody-fs8jj]

No they didn't😂 do you over react to everything or just other people's lives? If i was on trial, I'd want everyone awake and paying attention to facts and details... Wouldn't you? My Lord, careful what you wish for others.

[@jmoulty6404]

I would hope the jury isn’t sleeping through parts of the trial where they might miss something crucial as a result. If they are sleeping and not taking the case seriously they could make a incorrect decision at the end. Removing a sleeping juror has multiple reasons of why they should be removed.
