** This makes the ArmorPiercingQuestion from Juror #6 all the more poignant and somber though. The angel is ''very troubled'' at the possibility of the boy going onto committing (another) murder someday in the future. Just because he's innocent today, doesn't mean he'll [[EasyRoadToHell always be innocent tomorrow]]. Supernatural or not, he cannot protect him from the world, and the cruelty the lad's father has shown him, may [[HistoryRepeats come out in him]] one day.

** If he was a GuardianAngel he may [[DivinePunishment have stabbed]] the boy's father, because the abusive cruel man ''was about to kill him''. Hence why he was so sure of the young man's innocence.

[[WMG: Juror #8 was an AngelUnaware]]
* He's the boy's GuardianAngel that refuses to let the court convict him of a crime he didn't commit. But as part of this DivineIntervention onto the Jury of this trial, he would be ''severely limited'' by human form and constraints, and [[GodsHandsAreTied could not use miracles or revelations]]. All the angel was permitted to know was the boy's innocence - it was up to his own ingenuity now to dismantle the prosecution's case and faulty testimonies to win a "Not Guilty" verdict.

[[WMG: The trial is later declared a mistrial due to Juror 8's juror misconduct]]
* Almost all of Juror 8's actions would have resulted in a mistrial in real life, namely his actions of:
** Conducting an outside investigation (visiting the crime scene, buying a matching knife)
** Introducing evidence ''not'' presented/reviewed at the trial (one witness's eyeglass marks, another witness's limp, the angle of the switchblade stabs)

[[WMG: In the original film, Juror #3 is drunk.]]
* He slurs some of his speech and his speech pattern is definitely off. He is easily the most emotional of the all the jurors, and his anger has him almost on the verge of tears from the beginning. He threatens to start fights, never thinks before he speaks, and even walks in a staggered way.

** Supposedly super-rare knife. The store owner who sold the kid the knife swore on his life that it was the only one of it's kind... And another one appears in a pawn shop, according to Juror 8. This in of itself proves the knife was reproduced, and can't be nailed down to one or two men. This in turns leaves the only evidence brought forth to be 8's strong notion of the kid's treatment.
