In an exclusive interview on AC360, one of the Zimmerman trial jurors said most of the jury thought the 911 call screams came from Zimmerman, not Martin.
Juror B37 told Anderson the reason she thought Zimmerman was the person screaming was because he was the one who was beaten during the fight.
She said witness John Good's testimony about seeing Trayvon on top of George that night was why. Good did not see the fight clearly, "Because it was so dark he couldn’t see, but he saw blows down towards George. And he could tell that it was George Zimmerman on the bottom, he didn’t know who it was but he knew what they were wearing."
The juror said this testimony was evidence for her and some of the other jurors that proved Zimmerman must have been the person screaming in the call.

The defenders of GZ, Mark O'Mara, and even the jurors expressed concern as to why didn't Trayvon just go home. To me, it really showed their ignorance about what was Trayvon to do. We tell and allow lone female motorists that are concerned about being stopped at night by a supposed police officer to drive to the nearest lighted or crowded location or even a police station and NOT TO GET OUT OF THEIR CAR in an area they believe is unsafe or put themselves in a situation were they are vulnerable and at significant risk.. Think about it, why would Trayvon even consider leading the person who is following him right to his own front door?
Anderson, is it me or is Juror B37 saying that GZ, over reacted and should have done something different.
I just heard your juror regarding her vote, zimmerman was told not to follow was the key and he chose to ignore the order and followed TRAYVON anyway which meant he had a mission and he was not allowed to "stand his ground"
If there was a scuffle, she felt that a 17-year old boy who weighs less, non-athletic could overpower a grown man? Did they even bother to question why there wasnt' any evidence of a scuffle....besides Zimmerman's scrapes? Wouldn't there by some type of DNA transference if there was a fight (yes, I'm a CSI fan)?
