He got shot in the back

Everyone agreed to convict except 1 white male juror. They even tried to get him thrown off the jury, he refused to come off his white supremacy script
Damn so there is consensus except for one? Isn't the majority enough to convict?

Has to be unanimous in a criminal case in most states

Hung jury - Wikipedia
from this article

One proposal for dealing with the difficulties associated with hung juries has been to introduce supermajority verdicts to allow juries to convict defendants without unanimous agreements amongst the jurors. Hence, a 12-member jury that would otherwise be deadlocked at 11 for conviction and 1 against, would be recorded as a guilty verdict. The rationale for majority verdicts usually includes arguments involving so-called 'rogue jurors' who unreasonably impede the course of justice. Opponents of majority verdicts argue that it undermines public confidence in criminal justice systems and results in a higher number of individuals convicted of crimes they did not commit.

:snoop: why the fukk is this not how it works? why cant we make it ten outta twelve or something? this is far from the first case where this has happened. and this is the type of shyt where the mafia goes in and pays dudes off to hold out :what: dont they know this?
