EXCLUSIVE: One of The Jordan Davis JURORS Speaks Out!



EXCLUSIVE: One of The Jordan Davis JURORS Speaks Out!
On Nightline..."Valerie", one of the jurors from the Jordan Davis trial, spoke to Nightline, revealing that the group knew within the first hour that they would be unable to reach a unanimous decision.  For the first vote, it ended up being 9 in favor of a guilty verdict, and 3 in favor of a not guilty verdict.  In a second vote after over nearly 30 hours of deliberations, the vote became 9-3.
"It said if he believed that he had an eminent threat to himself or his fiancee, so that was a thing that those two folks believed – he was frightened and there was no other option for him in regards to Mr. Davis. The rest of us were 100 percent sure, you didn't have to react [with gunfire], you could have had another option.

"We looked at a lot of evidence – and myself, it was where the gunshots were, the 
timing. Could he have had other options? To me, [the shooting] was unnecessary."

She also said she hopes Jordan's parents do not feel they did a complete disservice in justice with this case, as Michael Dunn was convicted of attempted murder of the others in the car, and other charges.
