Crazy story out of Cincinnati where a juror realized during opening statements in a criminal domestic abuse trial that she was the anonymous caller to 911 in the case. She reportedly blurted out: “I was the person who made the 911 call. It woke me up out of my bed and I saw him beating on her. I thought she must be dead.” The judge declared a mistrial, and the juror will be a state witness in the new trial.
