I can't blame them too much. They've had months of this endless crud while the defense drug this out forever into a months long trial that should have gone 6 weeks and then that horrible marathon Wednesday just sitting in those chairs for hours and hours with only a few breaks. Sitting is one of the hardest things in the world on the back and butts. Bet they are plain tired. They have heard and seen terrible things and hours of boring boring testimony. I imagine they're brains are scrambled. I'd want to go home, decompress and rest and start hard deliberations Monday. You never can tell, they could have take a vote and 2 or 3 members are for a not guilty right now. The others realized they weren't going to change any minds tonight tired and done in, a long, long week on their backs and just wanted out of there. They've invested months of their lives to this and probably want to try to get this right.
