7 Quotes by Steve Struss

When we were in the jury room, there were tears shed. It was a difficult process to stand in judgment of someone else.

For me, personally, it was the volume of evidence.

The pressure, the weight of that on us was quite intense. We had a lot of people with headaches, a lot of people with upset stomachs. It was taking a physical toll on us by the end.

We didn't take a lot of breaks. Even when we ate dinner, they'd bring it in and we'd eat a little bit and get back to work, even as we finished eating.

It was quite difficult for a number of jurors. There were tears shed because we felt empathy for the two defendants.

After this particular count, I said it looks like we have a hung jury. So I actually considered writing a note to the judge to say this, we're at a deadlock.

All the jurors took notes to pay attention and stay awake. We chewed a lot of gum and ate a lot of candy.
