If Disney makes a movie of the book, she’ll be played by a vulture…

So, this is happening.

One of the women on the jury that found not guilty on Saturday has already signed with a book agent.

According to Reuters, literary agent Sharlene Martin said Monday that the juror “hopes to write a book explaining why the all-women panel had ‘no option’ but to find Zimmerman not guilty of murder.”

When I consider the qualifications to write a compelling examination of the intense debate in a jury room — a modern day 12 Angry Men, if you will, I surprisingly don’t think of a woman who gets all her news from The Today Show.

Nor one who describes the victim simply as a “boy of color.”
