To those who think G-63's vocal hesitancy shows deception, please consider he is working with a stuttering problem.

G63 says he wasn't even interested in the Boston Marathon Bombing. "That doesn't have any impact on my life," he explains.

He might only read national news but he doesn't understand it

G63 says he doesn't identify with a particular race. His parents are of mixed backgrounds he says.

 Yamiche Alcindor ‏@Yamiche 1m
G63 says he thinks every time a crime or trial involves people of color some "throw race" into the issue "Doesn't make sense to me," he says

#GeorgeZimmerman trial: 23 jurors questioned so far were asked to return, here's a list http://bit.ly/11ezXXG  #TrayvonMartin

George Zimmerman trial: 23 jurors questioned this week asked to return Tuesday
12:50 p.m. EDT, June 14, 2013

 
Here's a list of those jurors asked to come back Tuesday:

• B-35: A middle-aged black man who owns vending business. He was critical of the Rev. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, and says this case is not racial.

• B-29: A Hispanic nurse on an Alzheimer's ward who has seven children and lived in Chicago at time of shooting.

• B-12: A middle-aged white woman who works the graveyard shift. She likes the crime-forensics show CSI and said she'd heard Zimmerman was following Trayvon.

• B-76: A white middle-aged woman who said Zimmerman had an "altercation with the young man. There was a struggle and the gun went off."

• B-51: A retired white woman from Oviedo who has a dog and 20-year-old cat, and described herself as a former manager. She knew a good deal about the case, but said "I'm a pretty open-minded person. I'm not rigid in my thinking."

• B-7: A middle-aged white man who listens to NPR. He remembered when Florida implemented its "Stand Your Ground" law and debate then about whether it was needed.

• B-37: A middle-aged white woman who works for a chiropractor and has many pets. She described protests in Sanford as "rioting".

• B-86: A white middle-aged woman who works in the office of a middle school and has two grown sons. She said if Trayvon had not been "expelled" from school in Dade County — in actuality he was suspended — "this could have been prevented."

• B-55: A small dark-skinned woman who's a business major at college. She had almost no information about the case except for Facebook posts. "It doesn't concern me."

• E-6: A young white woman and mother who used to work in financial services. She used this case as an example to her adolescent children, warning them to not go out at night: "This kind of thing can happen."

• E-40: A white woman in her 60s who lived in Iowa at the time of the shooting. She heard national news reports and recalls the shooting was in a gated community and a teenager was killed.

• E-54: A middle-aged white man with a teenage stepson who wears hoodies. He recalled seeing photos of Zimmerman's head and face that show injuries.

• E-73: A middle-aged white woman active in Sanford's arts community, who is raising her late brother's 15- and 18-year-old children. The media interjected race in this case, she said.

• M-75: A young African-American woman who says many of her friends have opinions on the case, but she doesn't. Some in the black community "feel that they're being targeted," but she said she doesn't feel that way.

• B-61: A young white woman who remembered that "after the protesters, it seemed to turn more into a racial issue. ... I don't think it's a racial issue." She was critical of Al Sharpton.

• B-72: A young man who does maintenance at a school and competes in arm wrestling tournaments. He had little information about the case, saying he avoids the news because he does not want to be "brainwashed."

• E-22: A middle-aged African-American woman who said that after the shooting Sanford police should have booked Zimmerman and asked him more questions

• E-13: A young white woman who goes to college and works two jobs. She does not follow the news. She heard the shooting was a "racial thing," but said she did not know if Zimmerman had done something racist.

• E-28: A middle-aged white woman who works as a nurse. She knew little about the case and has no opinion about Zimmerman's guilt. Her husband drives her to work so she listens to his radio station, WDBO.

• K-80: A middle-aged white woman with children who has not followed the case. She considers the "racial undertones" in the case "disturbing" and called what happened a "terrible accident."

• K-95: A middle-aged woman who's a full-time college and "IT geek" with two children. She was critical of protests calling for Zimmerman's arrest, describing it as a "commotion."

• P-67: A native of Mexico who seemed eager to serve on the jury. He described it as a civic duty. "Some people think it is a racist thing," he said of the shooting, but he also said "accidents happen."

• G-14: A middle-aged white woman. "I remember a lot of anger, a lot of people upset that Mr. Zimmerman was not arrested immediately." Out-of-town protesters "didn't really know what happened," she said, and created "a discussion that did not need to be had."

@tinmyheart It is a fact that lawyers will take into consideration and experts say they take that into consideration in most cases.

@ESteltzer Clearly I didn't say we're programmed to think a certain way. It's just a fact that lawyers often take race into consideration.

I'm now using race in my tweets to help people understand more about potential jurors. These are based on my observances. Can be wrong.

@Yamiche Yes because saying what color someone is let's the reader know the type of the person they are. #badjournalism #areyoukiddingme

 Eric Steltzer ABC57 ‏@ESteltzer 3m
@Yamiche Obviously the case has to do with race, but to insinuate all jurors thoughts are influenced by race is foolish and poor journalism

 Yamiche Alcindor ‏@Yamiche 2m
@ESteltzer I think it's foolish to ignore that lawyers are taking note of race. I've spoke to several who confirm it will matter. Thanks.
