I haven't really thought about it:
An Orange County jury of 12 found Walker guilty of first-degree murder and attempted robbery with a firearm. In early July, Judge C. Jeffery Arnold sentenced Walker, who turns 21 later this month, to life in prison.
But in a highly unusual legal move that brings to mind the classic courtroom drama "12 Angry Men," Walker's defense attorney has asked the court to individually interview the jurors who found Walker guilty to determine their demeanor during deliberations and whether the defendant received a fair trial.
Defense attorneys say that one of the jurors, who is diabetic, was seen being helped out of the courthouse after the deliberations.
I don't know what the mental effects of low or high blood sugar are, but it seems to me that the defendant has a point.
