It started off as a sunny afternoon on Saturday. 12 older men sitting in a small, stuffy room screaming, yelling, thinking is he guilty, or is he not. Everyone wanted to know did he really do it, was the old lady seeing things and why did he do it? The faith and life of this young boy was lying in the hands of these 12 angry men. It was said that the old lady which lived across the street, saw the young boy stab his father in the chest. When the boy was asked where he was at the time of the murder, he said he was at the movies.

But he could not remember who was there, let alone what the actor's names were. Well you " re probably thinking where's the murder weapon? Well yes it was found, but the boy he was found Not Guilty. But why, all the evidence was there, it was plaint to see that he was guilty without a doubt.

According to the boy, he had bought the knife from shop keeper, but he had lost it on his way home, because it had feel out from his pocket. After the decision was made I had a change to chat briefly with some of the Jurors. Juror #1 said that "their was a lot of arguments in the court room". When I asked Juror #6 for a quote he told me "Half the time we thought that the boy was guilty, but towards the end we found him to not be guilty".

The last Juror to give me a quote was Juror #9 he said "if he didn't think about it, then he would have found the boy to be guilty for sure.".
