Juror B29, who identifies herself as Maddy, gave an exclusive interview to ABC News’ Robin Roberts, saying, “George Zimmerman got away with murder.”
Maddy — the only minority in the all-female jury — was initially for finding Zimmerman guilty of second-degree murder, saying, “I was the juror that was going to give them a hung jury. Oh I was. I fought to the end.”
However, after two days of deliberations, Maddy changed her tune – admitting there was a lack of evidence to convict Zimmerman. When asked if she stands by her decision Maddy replied, “I stand by that decision because of the law. If I stand by the decision because of my heart — he would have been guilty.”
“It’s hard for me to eat. It’s hard for me to sleep,” Maddy tells Roberts of her state of misery after Zimmerman’s acquittal. “I was forcefully included in Trayvon Martin’s death. And as I carry him on my back, I’m hurting as much as Trayvon Martin’s mom is. Because there’s no way that any mother should feel that pain.”
Though Maddy agreed the prosecutors had no case, she told Roberts, “George Zimmerman got away with murder, but you can’t get away from God.”
