"911 operator told Zimmerman to follow (Martin)" Juror B-37
A friend on FB posted the quote, and I'm looking for confirmation, having missed most of the interview.

(20,600 posts)That is patently incorrect! If this juror thought otherwise, I don't know what to say.

(22,758 posts)she said the 911 operator asked Zimmerman "where is he now"... as if to imply that he was supposed to follow ???

That isn't what happened. Here is the 911 transcript:

But you saw an interview with a juror who said that was her understanding, that Zimmerman was instructed to follow Trayvon?
If we keep seeing jurors interviewed, revealing their ignorance -- resulting in gross injustice (along with poor prosecution and shitty laws to begin with, that is) -- I wonder if there is any recourse?

(31,953 posts)It is astounding that something that clear, that everyone agreed upon was said, could be turned that upside down in anyone's mind.

(7,784 posts)it was 'late at night' when GZ saw Trayvon.
I watched a lot of the trial and I know for a fact that the time of the incident (shortly after 7 pm) was mentioned repeatedly.
She heard what she wanted to hear.
