She's juror number two and now she's speaking out on Lee to Inside Edition.

Uh, all I can say is that the the temperature in the room was very high.

Described the moment where you all reached a decision.

I felt like my heart was literally gonna pop out of my chest.

It was just I wouldn't say nervewracking, but it was just like this Is it like, this is the moment she says before the trial.

I didn't know who he was until someone actually book it down for me.

And I'm like, Oh, that's him going inside Some of what went on in the courtroom Lots of headlines came out of it, but one in particular was the showing of Weinsteins.

It wasn't something that we could have blocked out, but it was just something like, and it's hard not to make a face and things like that.

But the jury found Weinstein guilty of raping actress Jessica Man and sexually assaulting a former production assistant, Mariam Valet.

But despite the testimony of Sopranos actress Annabella Shura, they found him not guilty of the most serious charge of predatory sexual assault, which could have meant a life prison sentence.

Why was her testimony ultimately unconvincing?

I wouldn't say that it wasn't preventing.

It was very much so convincing to a lot of the jurors.

I feel like the way things went for her, it was wrong.

And I just feel like hopefully with the verdict that we gave, she fails and she has some type of closure.

She says she has a lot of respect for Weinsteins accusers who took the stand.
