George Zimmerman Juror B37 Loses Book Deal

Less than 48 hours after a jury found George Zimmerman not guilty of all charges stemming from the death of Trayvon Martin, it was announced that one of the six jurors who voted to acquit had signed an agreement with a literary agent in hopes of writing a book about the trial.

Thanks to Cocky McSwagsalot on Twitter (@MoreAndAgain), it appears that the Juror B37 book isn't going to happen. Cocky McSwagsalot was less than thrilled to hear about the deal and decided that something had to be done. She reached out to Sharlene Martin and eventually shared Martin's phone number, email address, and mailing location in an attempt to flood her with complaints. She threw together a Change.org petition, which rapidly garnered more than 1,000 signatures. Soon thereafter, both Martin and Juror B37 issued separate statements announcing that the book deal wouldn't come to fruition.
