Oral history of the 1994 Tupac rape case

An Oral History of Tupac's Sexual Abuse Trial

This part made my jaw drop. Talking about one old lady on the jury:

“Here was her position on the whole thing: This poor, poor girl. He was her ideal. He was her star. He was her guiding light that she looked up to and she respected and she fully expected him to marry her, and this is how he betrayed her. That was her entire theory of the case, and she never let go of that theory. She was the one who kept us in there forever. Had it not been for her, we would have acquitted on all counts. She was the reason we deliberated for so long. She would not back down an inch; she wouldn’t concede a single point.”

The old lady said, “Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, does this mean he’s going to go free?! Is that what you people want? He’s got ‘Thug Life’ written on his stomach. Is that what you want? Somebody like that roaming the streets?”

She gave this nearly hysterical speech about how there’ll be other women who are victimized and the message we were sending to young people. She was virtually arguing that whether this guy is guilty or not guilty, the details of this case are virtually irrelevant. Because it’s the message that you’re going to be sending that’s the key. She said, “I will not allow you to say this is a hung jury.”

Addressing the judge, Tupac said, “I mean this with no disrespect, Judge—you never paid attention to me. You never looked in my eyes. You never used the wisdom of Solomon. I always felt you had something against me.”
