Dismissed Juror Trespasses Today In The George Zimmerman Trial


A potential juror in the George Zimmerman trial who was dismissed earlier in the week over a Facebook post has been escorted from the Seminole County Criminal Justice Center after showing back up to the courthouse Friday.

The potential juror was identified as 55-year-old unemployed painter and guitar player, Jerry Conelis.  Counelis was eliminated from the jury pool on Wednesday after defense attorneys found a posting from him on a Facebook page from 2012.

According to the trespassing report Counelis walked into the foyer of the jury assembly and expressed his privacy concerns and animosity toward the jury process to the clerk. 

Authorities approached Counelis and said that as a dismissed juror he could not be in the jury assembly area or have any conatct with potential jurors until after the trial.
