Lindy Lou, Juror Number 2

For 20 years, Lindy has lived with an unbearable feeling of guilt. Committed to fulfilling her civic duty, Lindy sat on a jury with 11 other jurors that handed down the death penalty to a Mississippi man convicted in a double homicide. But an overwhelming feeling of regret compels Lindy to track down her fellow jurors and tackle an oft-politicized issue with humor and sincere curiosity.

This is the first conversation that Lindy has with a fellow jury member about her feelings of guilt and remorse after the conclusion of the trial. The jury member empathizes with Lindy but believes she made the right decision.

This clip offers a different viewpoint from a jury member who appears to have very little emotion about or memory of sitting on the jury.

In this exchange between Lindy, Allen and Allen’s wife we hear about their shared emotional and spiritual challenges after the verdict was given and after the execution was carried out.

The conversation with the jury foreman offers further ethical and moral perspectives on the death penalty. We also hear the letter the jury wrote that was read at Bobby Wilcher’s trial.

In this clip we hear Lindy reflecting on the larger lessons she has gained from conversations with fellow jury members 20 years after the trial.
