Confusion ensues in Florida courtroom after juror recants manslaughter conviction

The foreperson of the jury in the murder trial of Dayonte Resiles said three jurors were unwilling to convict Resiles based on his race.

The foreperson discussed on Friday the most recent twist in the trial that ended Wednesday with the hung jury.

“[The three jurors] said, ‘I don’t want to send a young Black male to jail for the rest of their life or have him get the death sentence,'” said the foreperson.

Resiles faces life in prison and possibly the death penalty for the murder of Jill Su, a 59-year-old Davie woman who was killed in her home back in September of 2014.

  1. Judge should find those four in contempt and have them prosecuted for jury tampering, the law says nothing about "Race" only that he did it or not. Damn liberal ass wipes.

  2. Three Jurors should be excused for their inability to judge the case on the facts that do not have a color of skin. The racists need to be excused from their post as jurors. Once this is allowed to exist in our law it will end our law and any reason to share your money with people that wish to do you harm.
