In truth, I am disgusted at her eagerness to ply her jury experience into a book deal. She was unabashedly sympathetic to “George” and uncritically accepted his version of the event. Extracts below illustrate my concerns.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">“JUROR: I think George Zimmerman is a man whose heart was in the right place, but just got displaced by the vandalism in the neighborhoods, and wanting to catch these people so badly, that he went above and beyond what he really should have done. But I think his heart was in the right place. It just went terribly wrong. “<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> COOPER: Do you feel that George Zimmerman racially profiled Trayvon Martin? Do you think race played a role in his decision, his view of Trayvon Martin as suspicious? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> JUROR: I don't think he did. I think just circumstances caused George to think that he might be a robber, or trying to do something bad in the neighborhood because of all that had gone on previously. There were unbelievable, a number of robberies in the neighborhood. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">COOPER: Why do you think George Zimmerman found Trayvon Martin suspicious then?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> JUROR: Because he was cutting through the back, it was raining. He said he was looking in houses as he was walking down the road. Kind of just not having a purpose to where he was going. He was stopping and starting. But I mean, that's George's rendition of it, but I think the situation where Trayvon got into him being late at night, dark at night, raining, and anybody would think anybody walking down the road stopping and turning and looking, if that's exactly what happened, is suspicious. And George said that he didn't recognize who he was. . . . <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> COOPER: Well, was that a common belief on the jury that race was not -- that race did not play a role in this? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> JUROR: I think all of us thought that race did not play a role. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> COOPER: So nobody thought race played a role? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">JUROR: I don't think so. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">COOPER: That wasn't part of the discussion in the jury room? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">JUROR: No, no, we never had that discussion. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> COOPER: It didn't come up, the question of, did George Zimmerman profile Trayvon Martin because he was African-American? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> JUROR: No, I think he just profiled him because he was the neighborhood watch, and he profiled anyone who came in acting strange. I think it was just circumstances happened that he saw Trayvon at the exact time that he thought he was suspicious. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">COOPER: The prosecution tried to paint George Zimmerman as a wannabe cop, overeager. Did you buy that? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> JUROR: I think he's overeager to help people. Like the lady who got broken in and robbed, while her baby and her were upstairs, he came over and he offered her a lock for her backsliding glass door. He offered her his phone number, his wife's phone number. He told her that she could come over if she felt stressed or she needed anybody, come over to their house, sit down, have dinner. Not anybody -- I mean, you have to have a heart to do that and care and help people. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal">As to the question you asked me, Scott. Here’s my answer.<span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">JUROR: It's just sad that we all had to come together and figure out what is going to happen to this man's life afterwards. [meaning George Zimmerman] You find him not guilty, but you're responsible for that not guilty. And all the people that want him guilty aren't going to have any closure.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> COOPER: Do you feel sorry for Trayvon Martin?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> JUROR: I feel sorry for both of them. I feel sorry for Trayvon, in the situation he was in. And I feel sorry for George because of the situation he got himself in.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> If the video of the entire show is available please watch it. In between episodes of her interview Anderson Cooper led a panel discussion about her remarks. Jeffrey Tobin, [“<span class="st">American lawyer, author, and legal analyst for CNN and The New Yorker”] </span>in particular, understood exactly how she inadvertently revealed her bigotry and bias about “those people.” Even more frightening is her thoughts about George Zimmerman’s (unlikely) future as a neighborhood watch person.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> COOPER: Is George Zimmerman somebody you would like to have on a neighborhood watch in your community? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> JUROR: If he didn't go too far. I mean, you can always go too far. He just didn't stop at the limitations that he should have stopped at. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> COOPER: So is that a yes or -- if he didn't go too far. Is he somebody prone, you think, to going too far? Is he somebody you would feel comfortable --<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> JUROR: I think he was frustrated. I think he was frustrated with the whole situation in the neighborhood, with the break-ins and the robberies. And they actually arrested somebody not that long ago. I -- I mean, I would feel comfortable having George, but I think he's learned a good lesson. “<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">COOPER: So you would feel comfortable having him now, because you think he's learned a lesson from all of this? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> JUROR: Exactly. I think he just didn't know when to stop. He was frustrated, and things just got out of hand. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Did you get that ? George has learned a “good lesson.” What the hell is wrong with this greedy cretin?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Rose Huskey<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div style="border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in"><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">From:</span></b><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif""> Scott Dredge [<a href="mailto:scooterd408@hotmail.com">mailto:scooterd408@hotmail.com</a>] <br><b>Sent:</b> Tuesday, July 16, 2013 12:16 AM<br><b>To:</b> Rosemary Huskey; viz<br><b>Subject:</b> RE: [Vision2020] just when I thought the Zimmerman trial was as sleazy as it gets<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I watched part 1 and part 2 of the interview on youtube.
