Mistrial after jurors refuse to convict Dayonte Resiles, who murdered a 59-year-old woman after breaking into her home, based on race. ‘I don’t want to send a young Black [sic] male to jail for the rest of their life or have him get the death sentence'
“I made a tearful vote in favor of manslaughter,” Juror #2 told Local 10 News’ Terrell Forney. “We were very frustrated. I don’t think anyone was ever made to feel bad about their vote, up until that point.”
That point was in court, when the jury seemingly decided to convict on a lesser charge of manslaughter instead of first-degree premeditated murder for the brutal killing of Jill Halliburton Su in her Davie residence during a home invasion seven years ago.
