Posts Mislead on Words of Alternate Juror in Chauvin Trial

An alternate juror in the trial of Derek Chauvin said she initially had "mixed feelings" about jury duty, because of concerns about "disappointing" either side and the possibility of "rioting." She said she "would have said guilty," but as an alternate did not participate in the verdict. Social media posts now use her words to erroneously imply that a juror admitted outside pressure was a factor in the verdict.
