The anonymous juror B37 gave her first interview to Anderson Cooper regarding the Zimmerman trial. She talked about if she thinks George Zimmerman was telling the truth, Rachel Jeantel not being a credible source because of her lack of education and more. Now you can check out the interview on the next page below.

Juror: “No Doubt That Zimmerman Feared For His Life”
CNN Reports:
One of the jurors who acquitted George Zimmerman said she had “no doubt” he feared for his life in the final moments of his struggle with Trayvon Martin, and that was the definitive factor in the verdict.
The juror spoke to CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360” on Monday night. Her identity was concealed.
She said she believed Zimmerman’s “heart was in the right place” the night he killed Martin, but that he didn’t use “good judgment” in confronting the Florida teen.
“I think George Zimmerman is a man whose heart was in the right place, but just got displaced by the vandalism in the neighborhoods and wanting to catch these people so badly that he went above and beyond what he really should have done. But I think his heart was in the right place. It just went terribly wrong,” she said.
Juror: I felt sorry for Rachel Jeantel Juror: Zimmerman’s heart in right place Juror B37: ‘It’s very emotional’ for me
If anything, Zimmerman was guilty of not using “good judgment,” the juror said.
“When he was in the car, and he had called 911, he shouldn’t have gotten out of that car,” she said.
She also said she believes Martin threw the first punch in their confrontation.
Zimmerman felt his life was in danger before shooting Martin, and it was his voice that was heard screaming for help in 911 calls, the juror said she believes.
She will be writing a book about her experiences, literary agent Sharlene Martin said before the interview aired.
“My hope is that people will read Juror B37’s book, written with her attorney husband, and understand the commitment it takes to serve and be sequestered on a jury in a highly publicized murder trial and how important, despite one’s personal viewpoints, it is to follow the letter of the law,” the president of Martin Literary Agency, wrote in a statement.
“It could open a whole new dialogue about laws that may need to be revised and revamped to suit a 21st Century way of life,” Martin said.

RG3′s Jumpoff Exposes Freak Pics He Sent On His Wedding Day
Bossip Reports:
Merdith Barber, a self-professed Redskins fan, is the VCU student who posted texts she says came from RG3 on his wedding day (July 6). She contacted us yesterday to clarify some information in our Sunday post and eventually went into saleswoman mode to get us to buy what she says are “inappropriate” photos RG3 sent to her.
A wild negotiation started via email and @Mere__eventually broke off the conversation when our offer of $500, for everything but the d**k pics, wasn’t to her liking.
The site decided to post all of the lusty evidence the blonde bimbo sent them and it looks like RG3 was really trying to get it popping with somebody other than his wife…
